Wow, most of that was way over my head. I’m gonna need to spend a day or two to digest it. Though I do agree with him about the brain being non-parallel. It seems to be more synergistic, if that makes sense.

Just finished up reading about the memory section. He seems to be opening up debate on established theories. For instance most people have heard about Short-term memory and accept it as fact, when really there is only conjectural evidence supporting it as a separate type of memory.

Thanks for this. Should keep me busy.
