[Public-List] white fleet award

[Don Campbell]

Jay ;
    Just remember that the last great area for world exploration for the 
21st Century is between the ears. We had a very interesting week of 
Public TV in December on neuroscience - they did 28 hours in a week and 
all areas of pros that week felt they were below 3% of total knowledge 
possible on brains and brain related sciences. Therefore,  if you know 
90 % of what you need to for the exam, you are unlikely to know any more 
than about 2% of what the real story is. However it is still a 
fascinating field of study and  while I know your reading is without 
compromise, you would enjoy a book called The Brain that Changes Itself 
by  Doidge. It is available as a Penguin paperback and is on Amazon or 
Alibris.
    Good luck on your exam and don't tell your examiners too much they 
have never heard before. That never seems to go over too well. . People 
like Hans Selye and Wilder Penfield still have important contributions 
to the basics though that still apply.
