Hi all

By the way the end of the essay by Young
suggests we should all read Pirsig, of course,
we have that ticked off already.

  Subject: MD science and the humanities

Hi all

  The humanities are about discussing values and morals,
  the sciences are about avoiding talk about morals and values.
  See link below to a discussion of this byRobert M Young.
  He suggests we need to take a look at the dualisms of:

humanities - science

society - science

culture - nature

qualitative - quantitative

value - fact

purpose - mechanism

subject - object

internal - external

secondary- primary (qualities)

thought - extension

mind - body

character - behaviour
