Huw,
Thanks for the indications. Any "recent" (10 years or so) research
dealing with the data made available by the knew scan technologies?
Best,

Nothing that I've come across. I haven't expected to find anything
though, so haven't looked with any diligence.
Christine had some thoughts on biological developments a while back.
*ANY* studies on genetic process are of merit here, I believe. it doesn't
have to be the brain. Note that this is looking at "natural phenomena"
rather than artificial phenomena alone.

Dynamic Systems Theory may be worth exploring -- I haven't looked yet.

Thanks Ulvi,
Any work you recommend for beginner's and or a must have/read in the
library?
I am trying to get a broader sense of human development using Vygotsky
as core and searching for recent readings in different fields like
Philosophy (Ilyenkov) and History (People's history of the world by
Chris Harman), But still lacking a clue on "phylogeny" and
neuroscience.
Wertsch, Vygotsky and the formation of mind -- genetic domains.
Waddington, Genetic Assimilation.
Batson, genetic/ecological processes.
The recent documents from Luria cover some "basics" which are typically
missed in this line of research. Luria's research is predominantly
functional (of a v. high calibre). It seems to be dialectic in an
Engels
kind of way. But the functional explanations stand up for themselves.

As far as I know, there is a strong neuroscience in Russia in the

Alexander Romanovitch's work, Homskaya and his many other students
continued his work a lot.

Hello Huw,
I like that text pretty much (I always returned to it in our
research
group in Brazil and I will present it again this week to our
research
group in Japan). And this text, acording to Leontiev, is from
1930...
But at the same time Leontiev, in a letter from this same year (if I
am not mistaken again) points to divergent way of thinking between
him, Luria and Vygotsky... I unfortunately know very little about
Luria (just read some texts) and even less about today Russian
neuroscience, does this proposal by Vygotsky continues in Luria? And
returning to the main topic, there is still neuroscience following
these guidelines?

Hello Larry,
Please say more... I think this is so important, and things
point out
that Vygotsky also, otherwise why enter the Medicine course in
1930
(if my memory is not wrong)
Wagner
"On Psychological Systems", collected works of LSV, v.3, p.105
"In actual fact, it seems to me that by introducing the concept of
psychological system in the form we discussed, we get a splendid
possibility of conceiving the real connections, the real complex
relationships that exist."
"To a certain degree this also holds true for one of the most
difficult
problems -- the localization of higher psychological systems."

Ulvi,
You mentioned you are interested in *cognitive CHANGE*.
Within the concept *neuroplasticity* is implicit Nero change.
There is a scholar in France [Catherine Malabou] whose central
conceptual
thesis explores *plasticity* as from the Greek *to mold or to
model.*
She moves the concepts of *dynamic* and *systems* and *theory*
and
*neural*
within the orbit of the central thesis of plasticity as change,
transformation and metamorphosis.
Not sure if this is too far off topic.
I also want to mention *neo-Piagetian* theory including
Vygotsky
and
Wittgenstein is being explored at SIMON Fraser University.
If interested I could say more.

Dear Andy and all, I found Kurt Fisher, he is at Harvard,
Mind,

Education.
He is described as:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo-Piagetian_theories_of_cognitive_development
Fischer's theory differs from the other neo-Piagetian
theories in
a
number
of respects. One of them is in the way it explains cognitive
change.
Specifically, although Fischer does not deny the operation of
information
processing constrains on development, he emphasizes on the
environmental
and social rather than individual factors as causes of
development.
To
explain developmental change he borrowed two classic notions
from
Lev
Vygotsky,[12]<
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo-Piagetian_theories_of_cognitive_development#cite_note-12
that
is, internalization and the zone of proximal development.
I am rather interested in the application of the new findings

the
field
of educational neuroscience into the theory and practice of
education.

Ulvi, best of luck in your search, and maybe someone on this
list
can
help. But don't get your hopes up.
Lawrence Barsalou is a very sophisticated writer on
neuroscience,
but
in:
Barsalou, L. W. (1992) “Cognitive Psychology. An Overview
for
Cognitive
Scientists,” Hillsdale NJ: Lawrence Earlbaum.
where he has a chapter on education, he characterises
education
as:
“teachers provide information that students incorporate into
existing
knowledge” - in other words, not only does he use "folk
psychology" in
his
grasp of the subtlties of education, but he seems to be
unaware
that
this
antiquated "theory" of teaching and learning has been
subject to
any
critique over the past 100 years. A classic illustration of
the
problem
that Greg has been raising.
