Constructing the “home-side” of a scientific legacy: Mary Everest Boole, pedagogy, and domesticity by Dunning, DE

“…Boole’s prolific writing is the misunderstood legacy of her late husband, the renowned mathematician and logician George Boole (1815–1864). As existing literature has shown, she worked to promote a morally and religiously charged understanding of his work. …”

The nonlinearity of regulation in biological networks by Santosh Manicka, Kathleen Johnson, Michael Levin, David Murrugarra

“…To better understand this property termed “regulatory nonlinearity”, we analyzed a suite of 137 published Boolean network models, containing a variety of complex nonlinear regulatory interactions, using a probabilistic generalization of Boolean logic that George Boole himself had proposed. Leveraging the continuous-nature of this formulation, we used Taylor decomposition to approximate the models with various levels of regulatory nonlinearity. …”
