The mind is what the brain does. That's so obvious a formulation that i was surprised not to have heard the thought put so succinctly before, so googled it. 178 hits for the line in quotes, and there some very interesting items indeed there, and many when no quotes are used, too. Some very interesting pop science links here: indiana.edu And below is from edge.org, which I have as one of my fave links on my profile but haven't clicked on for a while. edge.org There is a link to the debate mentioned. edge.org This is a link to Steven Pinker, wow, talk about a shootout. edge.org This is Steven Rose's riposte. He is affronted, as well he might be. This is SO fascinating, thank you Laz for sending me to it with that good line. edge.org Then each speaks once more, testily, and then there's the Q&A, which hasn't been posted on the site yet. Soooo interesting a conversation between alpha males. I ended up reading the whole debate.
