Thanks, I'll see if I can get hold of a copy of that. Julf wrote: > I am very glad the International Baccalaureate diploma programme > contains a mandatory Theory of Knowledge course.

All I'd wish for is something that most people would find in their mandatory education, preferably in the earlier years. It doesn't have to be much. I had to get a little insight at the uni, but it'd would be very interesting to expand upon. Where I live there's nowadays a university programme called Fashion Studies. You can actually get a PhD in that. I'm not quite sure what to think of it, I don't really know what is being taught. But I remember it was quite controversial when it started a few years ago. @garym Voting? Don't get me started... @Mnyb I have a surprisingly big amount of (former) collegues, who believe in crystal healing, astrology and such, and we all work in applied matematical statistics. Go figure.
