Since especially about 2010, I have read more and more intensely in many scholarly areas in an attempt to understand, and if possible do something about the current "post truth" era, as it has been called. I would like to know what qualities are found in genuine and effective knowledge producing enterprises, from infants learning language, individuals learning about a new field, to small study groups, to universities from, on the other hand, individuals and organizations seeking power to accomplish some goals, which appear to be sources of information, but are really saying whatever it takes to achieve some result.This has lead me to areas like social epistemology, history and philosophy of science, media ecology, and then to more concrete areas including evolutionary biology and especially evolutionary developmental biology, evolutionary psychology, neurology, linguistics, and cultural anthropology.Specifically, I have learned from the social epistemologist Alvin Goldman and his web of colleagues, workshops, and conventions; Michael Tomasello, who has spent two decades as co-director of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, and co-director of the Wolfgang Kohler Primate Research Center, and has coauthored 200-300 studies with his many collaborators. I have also participated in the interdisciplinary group around Dan Sperber (see http://cognitionandculture.net/).I published online two works that reflect these ideas: Cannon Balls, Plate Tectonics, and Invisible Elephants (bit.ly/3292YGY), and From Monkey Neurons to the Meta-Brain (bit.ly/344YNOe)

I was active in SHEAR (Society for the History of the Early American Republic), an organization of the foremost scholars of this area, acting as their web editor and publishing a collection of original sources with commentary at http://jmisc.net/jmisc/index.html. I did some pre-production editing of two academic history books, correcting many typos just before they were to be published:Soul by Soul: Life Inside the Antebellum Slave Market by Walter Johnson, Harvard U. Press 1999Parker Pillsbury: Radical Abolitionist, Male Feminist by Stacey M. Robinson, Cornell U. Press, 2000Over the last couple of years, I read and made many corrections to:*Psychosyntax: The Nature of Grammar and its Place in the Mind* by David Pereplyotchik, Springer, 2017an extraordinary work, I think, of psychology and linguistics with some neurological evidence and arguments.All of this work was voluntary.

Worked From Home And Onsite In Sunnyvale, Ca.

Wrote and maintained parts of the UTS Unix operating system for mainframe (IBM and Amdahl) computers. Knowledge of all major subsystems: memory management, I/O, Networking, file systems, ... Frequently tracked down design flaws responsible for crashes and poor performance. UTSG was a small software spin-off of Amdahl.Gave a well received seminar on details of the memory management subsystem of UTS. Presented a class in England on a kernel debugging system I wrote.

New Jersey And Sunnyvale, Ca.

Top person in the Northeast region responsible for installing, maintaining, and trouble-shooting UTS, a version of UNIX running on both Amdahl and IBM mainframe computers of the s390 class (which were plug-compatible). Debugged UNIX O/S failures, gave seminars, trained other customer service representatives. Eventually hired by Development in Sunnyvale as developer of the same software, working remotely from NJ

Worked as contract software specialist with Bell Laboratories. My first assignment was testing UNIX system calls for for an early 8088-based UNIX minicomputer (possibly never marketed). A byproduct of this was a test bed incorporating an interpreter for a large subset of the C Programming language.I later worked for a processor design department, where I wrote Simulator, Assembler, and manual for same, for an advanced 32-bit Digital Signal Processor with a RISC processor. The simulator for the DSP32 was designed to do two things: allow DSP programmers to write and run programs before the chip became available, and also in many cases for convenience thereafter; and to generate exact pin for pin and per machine cycle I/O for driving a hardware test bed for the DSP32 chip to show it performed as specified. I later did the same sort of work for a less advanced but much less expensive 16-bit DSP called the DSP20.

Master'S Degree, Mathematics
