The entire four year run of the Neuroanthropology Network Newsletter that Charlie founded and edited between 1988 and 1992, along with a useful neuroanthropology bibliography. These were very rare and hard to get hold of. Now you can download them for your own library. |

An Ibis in the Tree: A Biogenetic Structural Prologue to the Study of Freedom A short book based upon a series of lectures Charlie gave during two graduate seminars on biogenetic structuralism during 1986 at Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada. The seminar lectures and discussions were taped and transcribed, and only a handful of copies of this photocopied document have heretofore been in existence. This is a reflection back at a decade and a half of the development of biogenetic structural theory. Each chapter will be uploaded as soon as it has been scanned from the original and edited. |

Charlie's professional career, as well as a list of all his publications, most of which are in the area of the anthropology of consciousness, ritual, religious symbolism, and the brain. You may also wish to explore the home page of Carleton University's Department of Sociology & Anthropology where Charlie taught for 26-plus years. He is now an emeritus professor in that department.
Biogenetic structuralism is a body of theory and research projects that integrates anthropology with the neurosciences, phenomenology and quantum physics. This interdisciplinary perspective attempts to account for the structure of consciousness and culture by reference to the neurobiology of cognition. This section will be of interest to anyone seriously interested in the science of consciousness, transpersonal experience, religion, human universals and the relations between consciousness and reality . A "Self-Guided Tutorial" in biogenetic structuralism has been added for those wishing to study biogenetic structuralism in more depth.
This link takes you to a page where various articles, chapters and books written by Charlie may be found organized by topic area. Most pieces have to do with biogenetic structural theory, neurophenomenology, neuroanthropology, pre- and perinatal anthropology, and transpersonal anthropology.
