Subject: Categorization: Summer Institute (Montreal)
Dear Dr. Mccarty,
In the 12 days from June 30th to July 11 2003, Montreal will be the
Categorization Capital of the Cognitive World.
http://www.unites.uqam.ca/sccog/liens/program.html
The latest developments in all aspects of categorization will be
described and debated across the cognitive sciences spectrum:
cognitive anthropology, computer science, linguistics,
cognitive neuroscience, philosophy and psychology.
The University of Quebec/Montreal will host this Cognitive Sciences
Summer Institute. I hope you and your colleagues and students will
attend and participate in this remarkable convergence.
I've attached a sample of only a few of the over 50 speakers.
For the full programme:

Best wishes,
Stevan Harnad.
