[Magdalen] also Daniel Levitin

[Marion Thompson]

I'm out of touch now, but back in the day McGill's medical school was

I was not familiar with his work, but I googled his name, and though I didn't find the Boston Globe article, the results of the google caused me to download one of his books for my Kindle, "A Field Guide to Lies: Critical Thinking in the Information Age", and I'm loving it.  As of now, at least, I plan to get his others, one at a time.
