Contemporary Reflections on Substantial Kind Change in Avicenna
ABSTRACT Contemporary metaphysics, and especially neo‐Aristotelian metaphysics, tackles many of the same problems as Avicenna did. One of these problems is the possibility of substantial kind change. For instance, is it possible for an animal to change its species?

ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is a pathogen associated with healthcare‐acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to beta‐lactams and carbapenems. Although wild animals are not typically exposed to antibiotics, they can harbour resistant strains. The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is increasingly found in urban areas,

If SO is a Riemann surface with a complete metric of finite area and constant curvature -1, let SC denote the conformal compactification of SO. We show that, under the assumption that the cusps of SO are large, there is a close relationship between the hyperbolic metrics on SO and SC. We use this relationship to show that

What Does Intarsia Say? Materiality and Spirituality in the Urbino Studiolo☆
Abstract Upon entering the Urbino studiolo of Federico da Montefeltro, the visitor is struck by a material‐charged environment. Surprisingly, only a few scholars have addressed one prominent aspect of the decorative scheme, namely, the feature of intarsia as a medium. Even so, it remains on the sidelines of the discussion.

Biolinguistics and Platonism: Contradictory or Consilient?
It has been argued that language is a Platonic object, and therefore that a biolinguistic ontology is incoherent. In particular, the notion of language as a system of discrete infinity has been argued to be inconsistent with the assumption of a physical (

For the first time, the structural response to pressure of a verdazyl radical crystal has been studied. Computational modelling revealed changes in electronic and magnetic properties as a result of a structural phase transition.The response of the 1,5‐tolyl‐3‐phenyl‐6‐oxo‐verdazyl radical (pTolOV) to pressure in the crystalline state has been ...

Cu(II)‐based two‐dimensional coordination networks constructed from bis(imidazolyl)benzene ligands show how subtle changes in counteranion identity modulate layer geometry, stacking, and stability. Single‐crystal structures combined with bulk syntheses reveal distinct packing efficiencies and framework responses to humidity, vacuum, and temperature for
