(The problem with modern research being more like a PR exercise) So, despite the alloplastic nature of the brain, demonstrated to me by my ability to recover from a series of minor strokes, cognitive behavioural therapy is still unable to grasp the picture, so to speak. (Included in this is my treating of my-self subjectivity as an object which is the weakness of the object/subject mode of thought, of course.) Thanks for the comments BTW. Will try yo get to Dominic's very interesting comments for a comment. This is also connected with the current quarrels over the nature of Aspereger's which may be erroneous in claiming it as an Autism Spectrum Disorder Syndrome. (The limits of categories.) -- have chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome so may be delayed in reply or brain fog weird just to let you know that's all, Chris Jones.
