It seems like ages ago that Kitty Jung posted the following message:
A student looking towards research in mind/body/spirit
asked which universities would be best for her to apply
to in terms of who(m) is doing the most work in this area.
I suggested doing a focused web search in the meantime
Jim Clark feels that Louis Schmier is guilty of having a "pendulum view"
and claims that modern science is refutation since a pendulum view cannot
predict progress. Another, less perjorative, term is the Hegelian dialectic
which is similar except that each synthesis is different than theses

Oops, sent this to Jim Clark instead of the list.
Several list members have suggested that it would be helpful
(if not essential) for Kitty's student to define the terms
"mind/body/spirit." I completely agree and find it fascinating
that there is a notable lack of agreement on t
Another approach is to ask the student for a specific definition of
mind/body/spirit. A glance through the last two years of _American Psychologist_
articles reveals topics of Flow and Happiness (Csikszentmihalyi, Deiner, Buss
articles), automaticity vs. free will in cliical psychology

Today's British Medical Journal carries a short item that seems
apropos. Even if its specific relevance to this thread is
unclear, it recalls our previous discussion of the paper "Effect
of Holy Water on Growth of Radish Plants". This item may suggest
one reason for the failure of that research.

just going to do what most of you imply - manipulate the student into
believing their
interests are not valid nor respected by academics thereby
forcing them to do something that is NOT their passion. Me thinks maybe

Watch it, Paul. You're also paid to teach them to think critically, which
means they must consider all possible explanations. Not to teach them what
you believe to be the truth, again, that would be religion, not science.

I wanted to second Paul Smith's distillation of the advice. I would

I would like to provide some potentially helpful responses.
I, too, am not quite sure what the student means by mind/body/

scientific training but also
