Dear Ana,
I finally read your wonderful message on play, imagination and Einstein'
referential systems carefully. What was so interesting about the way
Einstein thought that he examplified what George Lakoff and others have
written about as embodied thinking. He seemed to have been able to
connect the thought of the body with very complex ideas in physics.
Im am currently reading Deacon The Symbolic Species(Borton, 1997) whom you
might find helpful for the paper you are writing.
Warm regards,
Vera
