Michael, Cognitive Neuroscience, if we’re successful in surviving dissociative experiments which we don’t have funding for at present (lots of cutbacks and competition for funds). Here are some refs; if interested, I can send: This one has a link: M. J. Healy and T. P.

There’s more, including a beginning at addressing episodic memory. We’ve done quite a bit on that more recently and haven’t had time to write it all up. Also, Tom and I are on ResearchGate.

A book of that name by David I. Spivak, Mathematics at MIT was recently published by the MIT Press. Has anyone seen it? Did it seem interesting. I wonder what kind of science outside of string theory would find CT useful.
