The Unified Theory of the Nervous System
and Behavior
Cognitive Philosophy /Brain Theory by Steven Michael Harris
Yes, you need to be a smart person to get through medical school.
But are all doctors geniuses?
No, they are not all geniuses. You do not need to be a genius to become a doctor.
So isn’t it possible for a genius to learn enough medicine on his or her own to be able to have enough understanding to contribute to the field?
Great contributions of intellect are possible without access to medical technology. Don’t confuse technology with intellect (or spirit).
Throughout history, independent minds without professional or academic associations have made great contributions in every field of study. Einstein was a patent clerk. In spite of the current methods and technology, the human mind is still the most powerful tool used in science. So the current arrogance of the medical establishment that no layman can any longer make any significant contribution to medical science is just wrong.
Do you need to know everything a doctor knows in order to be able to make discoveries that would be valuable to the doctor?
There are some great libraries in the world. Do you need to know everything in these libraries in order to make good use of these libraries? Wonderful discoveries are possible when a person knows where to look in the library and how to use original thinking with this information.

Many of the problems of medicine, biology, psychology and philosophy require an understanding of the basic mathematical principles behind how the nervous system does what it does to achieve function and experience, and that mathematics is not explained using narrowly-focused statistics. Understanding how this math works will be the tool for the discovery of many answers of great importance to humanity. The case for this concept and the offering of an explanation of this kind of math is made in the many essays of this website.
On these pages you will find ideas that should haunt you. Included are new concepts in science, medicine, sociology, evolutionary psychology, philosophy and more...
This website and the podcasts of Everyone's Revolution explain how the brain creates the mind, but many side issues must be resolved in order to teach this material. Once you realize that the "hard problems" are really the first problems to be answered, you then have a tool for changing all of science and medicine by explaining a massive number of discoveries that will fall into line in order to unify the evidence. All of the evidence is good. The interpretations of the evidence are mistaken in many cases. For ten years now there have been new discoveries of evidence that all move in the direction of supporting this theory (or this school of many theories) and its predictions. Quite a few people have started to pay attention to this theory as well.
