Nonlinear Dynamical Systems in Psychiatry

Comment on Andreewsky

I found this paper quite interesting for its use of von Foerster's work dealing with personal identity. This resonates well with the central theme of my own contribution to this symposium on Archetypal Dynamics, namely the fundamental role of ontological identity in defining the basic objects of interest to psychologists, sociologists, biologists. I would be most interested to hear how von Foerster's view might agree with or differ from my own.
