REPLY TO C95

I don’t know whether you know of the programme "Behind the Brain" after the 9 O’clock news on Radio 4 on Tuesdays ? I find it interesting, for bringing one up to date with knowledge of mind and brain.

Albert Dean (C95/27) : There are many more than 3,000. I don’t blame them for following the smell of money. I learnt this recently after many years. My excuse is that the smell was so rare. Nurses and teachers should learn the same lesson. It doesn’t pay to take an interest in your work.

Graham Dare (C95/35) : Science was always at the frontiers of knowledge - it’s just that the frontiers have moved !

David Taylor


David : These threads seem to have got somewhat convoluted ! If Albert & Graham wish to continue them, would they remind us of what it’s all about (I know we can look it up, and thanks for the references, but consider our new members !).
