RELATIONSHIPS
AND PSEUDOSCIECE
This
issue sees the conclusion of our Relationships main theme and
the introduction of our next major topic: Pseudoscience.
As
ever we are looking for material and we have made several
suggestions in our introductory pages.
The
main theme following Pseudoscience will be that of Boundaries -
professional, social, academic, etc. Please put your
thinking caps on and, even if you are unable to provide an
article, perhaps you could make some suggestions for topics you
would like to see discussed under that heading.
SAD
NEWS
You
may have seen the letter from Gerhard Gips commenting on an
apparent diminution of original material in recent issues of Nurturing
Potential.
I
have to confess that this is not a figment of his
imagination. Having been involved with several
non-profit-making magazines over the years, I know too well that
the energy that is introduced initially will ultimately
dissipate. This is inevitable as people move on -
geographically and in terms of their activity.
The
hope is always there that departees will be replaced. In
many cases they suggest their own replacements.
In
the case of Nurturing Potential, unhappily, several key
members of our editorial board have withdrawn their support and
we have not yet found adequate replacements for them. We
are continuing with the online edition, but fear that the amount
of work involved in producing the paper edition on a regular
basis has proved too much for the remaining personnel -
particularly your Editor.
Nurturing
Potential, in its Internet format, will - as I have said -
continue but I have written to all subscribers to the paper
edition and, where appropriate, refunded their subscription
fees. The online version is, of course, free of charge,
and we have now (with the discontinuation of the paper magazine)
removed any password entry to any of the articles.
If
you appreciate Nurturing Potential, please support us in
any way you are able. We need original articles, but are
always happy to accept previously published material (subject to
copyright considerations). We would also welcome offers of
editorial board assistance or an introduction to anyone who
might be willing to cooperate with the production of the
magazine.
