Message of "mission critical" being put out to some "think-tanks"
Below is a message I am sending to some "think tanks". [ Please, in addition, DO NOT FORGET THE EDITOR/CO-AUTHOR offer, 2 Updates BELOW this Update; this is a need I have for some involvement and cooperation from another. ] Now: Mission Critical My main life's work (referred to below) is "done" (and has been for almost a year). Nothing major will change; it is time for its fair close evaluation (and appreciation) NOW. I do not think you should loose sight of this strict empirical view and approach to behavior [patterns] ; it is well-founded, well-ground, explicit, and ALL concepts have a notable CLEAR CONCRETE relationship to DIRECTLY OBSERVABLE KEY OVERT BEHAVIOR PATTERNS (at least at the INCEPTION of all major new ways of thinking (each qualitatively different, but hierarchical)) This is a BIOLOGY OF BEHAVIOR per se (of "just behavior"). It gives a wholly biological view and perspective on what is (what MUST BE) an aspect of biological functioning: behavior patterns. THIS IS THE ONLY THEORY AND APPROACH THAT DOES THIS; and, in the end, by the time you get to and read the addenda, provides a clear a set of testable (verifiable/falsifiable) hypotheses as possible, without further discoveries (LIKELY DISCOVERIES). Here is the main guidance you need: READ: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/286920820_A_Human_Ethogram_Its_Scientific_Acceptability_and_Importance_now_NEW_because_new_technology_allows_investigation_of_the_hypotheses_an_early_MUST_READ and https://www.researchgate.net/publication/329428629_Essentially_all_Recent_Essays_on_Ethogram_Theory (basically a BOOK) and https://www.researchgate.net/project/Human-Ethology-and-Development-Ethogram-Theory (see the Project Log of this Project to see many important Updates.) ALSO, not among the 200 pages of major papers and 512 pages of essays in my "BOOK", above (which you already have been directed to), the following link gets you to 100 more pages of worthwhile essays composed after the 512 pages: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/331907621_paradigmShiftFinalpdf (you CAN find the pdf at this last link, though it may take a little careful looking). And, similarly, see the other 2 addenda . Ignoring this view (A NEEDED AND UNIQUE VIEW and OF empiricism and of science) would science negligence -- something you do not want to be a part of. AT THE SAME TIME, it is as much philosophy (of science, psychology) AS ANYTHING (so, thus, if philosophy is your interest my work should [still] be a major interest of yours).
