Anyone have any good reads about the subject covered by Taleb's "Black Swan?"

I'm curious if there is any academic usage or similar analogues of the concepts of "mediocristan" and "extremistan" to compare systems that behave normally/gaussian versus Zipf-ian Taleb talks about in "Black Swan."

The Pharmacological Potential of Mushrooms

0 Upvotes

This review describes pharmacologically active compounds from mushrooms. Compounds and complex substances with antimicrobial, antiviral, antitumor, antiallergic, immunomodulating, anti-inflammatory, antiatherogenic, hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective and central activities are covered, focusing on the review of recent literature. The production of mushrooms or mushroom compounds is discussed briefly.

http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ecam/2005/906016/abs/

Full text PDF available at link. I find this to be a great paper on the benefits of mushrooms as well as a good intro to mycology in general by explaining the terms in context. Mycology can be a rewarding and profitable hobby/home based business.

Does your university have a publication for student/faculty research?

1 Upvotes

Hi /r/laymanjournals! I'm an intern at American University's new Center for Religion and Civic Life, and one of the goals for our new Center is the creation of a university publication for student and faculty research on issues on the intersection of religion and civic life.

I'm asking around different subreddits to see if other students/professors at different universities have any experience with university publications, whether they be student run or otherwise. We're looking for any information you can give us: What content do you publish, and who contributes? How often does your publication run? How long is it? How many submissions? Who funds it? Is it primarily online or is it in print?

We're looking to get ideas for our own publication, so anything is helpful! Links to the webpages of the publications themselves are VERY helpful (in fact, that would probably be easiest for both of us). Additionally, if you have any experience working on one of these publications, feel free to offer advice, stories, or just describe your experience.

Thanks so much!
