On Human Brain Size; the Conciousness and Anaesthesia

A happy new year to all readers. I just got two articles with some references on further resources:

• Brain Size of Modern Humans is shrinking
• On the Workings of Anaesthesia

In near future, I will post some more math; I just haven't read all the things I stumbled on.

edit: let me squeeze in another link to an article:

Language learning is fast when words are connected with movements/gestures, which is also true for abstract words with no obvious gesture for it.

Persistence of intuitive beliefs

At Helen's blog at the cognition and culture is a short article about intuitive vs scientific explanations. Some of the comments posted there are also interesting.

By the way, I included the snap shots feature. For those who dislike it, disabling it is quite easy via the drop down menu at the top right corner of each snap shot.

Futhermore I moved the few german-only postings to a new blog and won't bother readers of this one with more german writings.
