Paleontological Society

I have the great pleasure to be the citationist for presentation of the 1992 Paleontological Society Medal to Dr. Malcolm C. McKenna. Malcolm McKenna has had a profound influence on our profession, both as a research scientist and a mentor. He is one of the most broadly trained and interested scientists I know, and he has a consuming passion for learning. He loves all aspects of paleontology—field work, literature, laboratory analysis of specimens, theory, even fossil preparation (in his enthusiasm to uncover critical specimens, or trusting only himself to perform delicate preparation of unique fossils). Malcolm has never been afraid to propose controversial ideas, to change his mind when wrong, to tackle problems that others consider insoluble, or to incorporate new scientific techniques in his work before others realize their significance.

The Mind

The article deals with the analysis of V. N. Soroka-Rossinsky's pedagogical heritage about the national school reflected in his pre-revolutionary articles. Based on the analysis of the articles, it is concluded that V. N. Soroka-Rosinsky in his views on the national school is close to the K. D. Ushinsky’s principle of the nationality of education. At the same time, the research scientist tends to the psychology of feeling, the energy theory of the American psychologist Stanley Hall - the creator of pedology, which was reflected in his further practical work and collaboration with A. F. Lazursky and V. M. Bekhterev. The central concept in his theory is a national feeling, which is not perceived by the mind, but is lived and experienced by the heart. This strong feeling is associated with the adolescent thirst for heroism and feat, the attraction to a strong personality, which should be applied in education. The scientist finds the roots of sacrificial civic feeling in genetic memory and connects the personal experience of a teenager with the genetic one...

Ape Language

Viewing communication as a dynamic system is laudable; arguing that the approach is novel is questionable. Some researchers studying nonhuman communication other than ape language have been using such an approach for decades. A brief description of an avian system provides one such example. Interestingly, the dynamic social system described in the target article may have a developmental neuronal basis.
