Dear Vera,

I would like to know more about two things: Lakoff reference and Deacon
reference.
I have read Lakoff's and Johnson's theory of Metaphor (Metaphors we live
by) but nothing else by Lakoff. It would be interesting to know in what way
do you think Einstein's thinking exemplifies Lakoff's theory.

And I would love to read The Symbolic Species. My former adviser from the
University of Belgrade, Ivan Ivic wrote a book "The Human - an Animal
Symbolicum". This may have been a work that moved me toward studying
symbolic processes in the first place. I always tell him (prof. Ivic) that
his book should be translated into English, but he only shrugs and smiles.

Best wishes
Ana
