The Mantis and the Mirror Doorn, Jan, "An extraordinarily beautiful, original, thought-provoking, action inciting creation." Why was the physical world created in the first place and what is the purpose of humans in this cosmic act? Can Spirit be known separately from the physical universe? What then, is the role of environmental conservation? The book explores these fundamental and timely questions in a playful tale, integrating science, philosophy, history, and adventure. Sydney Madrid befriends a mysterious praying mantis who uses his dry wit and simple language to discuss existence, ethics and purpose. Sydney's other friend is Pat, a European ecologist who brings practical, cultural and environmental wisdom to the table. The story takes the couple on a fast-paced quest across the world. The mantis keeps popping up unexpectedly, as if he is monitoring Sydney's evolution into a wholly conscious human.

A stochastic process {X(t): 0 S t < =} with discrete state space S c ~ is said to be stochastically increasing (decreasing) on an interval T if the probabilities Pr{X(t) > i}, i E S, are increasing (decreasing) with t on T. Stochastic monotonicity is a basic structural property for process behaviour. It gives rise to meaningful bounds for various quantities such as the moments of the process, and provides the mathematical groundwork for approximation algorithms. Obviously, stochastic monotonicity becomes a more tractable subject for analysis if the processes under consideration are such that stochastic mono tonicity on an inter­ val 0 < t < E implies stochastic monotonicity on the entire time axis. DALEY (1968) was the first to discuss a similar property in the context of discrete time Markov chains. Unfortunately, he called this property "stochastic monotonicity", it is more appropriate, however, to speak of processes with monotone transition operators. KEILSON and KESTER (1977) have demonstrated the prevalence of this phenomenon in discrete and continuous time Markov processes. They (and others) have also given a necessary and sufficient condition for a (temporally homogeneous) Markov process to have monotone transition operators. Whether or not such processes will be stochas­ tically monotone as defined above, now depends on the initial state distribution. Conditions on this distribution for stochastic mono tonicity on the entire time axis to prevail were given too by KEILSON and KESTER (1977).
