   Ordered it in print, then found it online, and keep it open on my desktop.   
      
   I find it fascinating, and dense. As with Jaynes, the book has an excellent   
   bibliography, enough for a lifetime.   
      
   McGilchrist needed a better editor. Part of that is the material itself. Part   
   is his presentation. IMO. Part of it is me. About halfway through, I'm waiting   
   for discussion of pitch-based language, specialization v. redundancy, etc,   
   etc... Preparing to be    
   disappointed.   
      
   I brought up the book and your quote in the hopes that Hank et al might see   
   the barrenness of applying cybernetics to the aenigma. The mind is not a   
   closed-loop system, though the left-brain might 'believe' otherwise.
