A shameless and overwhelming family plug!! Why aren't you selling tickets, I'd buy one if I could make it, sounds interesting.

Truth be told it's usually SRO for her talks, they (generally) sell out quickly.

The gist of her talk is probably right here.

http://www.mc.vanderbilt.edu/discoveryseries/

Click on the media player below her name, it's 55 minutes long, but the first 10 mikes are intro's. If you haven't watched it , you probably should as it's good stuff...And even I, can understand it!

Now that's a feat! Dr A has soldier-proofed a psychiatric lecture on creativity? Just that's enough for a Nobel, since she's already got one of those NAS medal thingies from one of our presidents.

I'll watch the video when I get a chance.

So, T - what are the chances of getting signed books for the QPs on this site who are interested (possibly the whole Dr A series), with any extra proceeds being donated to the charity of your families' choice? I know I could support that cause. Because of my ex, I'd like to suggest any charity that does research into bi-polar disorder...

I think that's a nice idea, however I don't know how many would be interested, some of the books are now in paperback.

Here is a partial list.
