Mr. Joseph A. Stirt
310 DeNeve Circle
Los Angeles, Calif. 90024
Dear Mr. Stirt:
I have been interested to read your letter.
Your ideas about the nature of the mind are, I would say, related to Bohr's ideas about complementariness.
I myself think that it is likely that we shall develop, as the years go by, a more and more detailed understanding of the nature of the mind in relation to the structure of the brain.
I enclose my 1961 paper on Anesthesia, in which I discuss the electric oscillations of the brain as constituting consciousness and emphemerai memory, and molecular patterns constituting permanent memory.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling
