     * Use anglified literation of keyword (e.g.  
     write aa for å, oe for ö etc), although
     documents themselves should show graphical form
     * Search covers all chapters/articles currently
     listed (both English and Norwegian) at stein-braten.net,
     however the major bulk of publications are in paperform 
     only, so far (see the link to overview, below)
     * Repeat searching with grammatical variation
     of keywords (e.g. singular / plural)
     * Give words with dashes as separate keywords
     * No punctuation -- this is letter-only search
     * More results with fewer keywords (the

               The main postulate (on the Virtual Other)
               as proposed in Born with the Other in Mind
               led to a conference and the Cambridge University 
               Press book (edited by S.Braten), which brings
               together scientists from many fields of research
               in cross-disciplinary efforts at dialogue.

               books and articles, many of which deals with the 
               Virtual Other theory).
     

               The virtual other is, as suggested by 
               this author, a companion space, in-born 
               in the mind in an immediate sense, 
               which invites actual others for 
               protoconversation from birth, and is 
               a ground for socialised cognitive contact
               of a pro-compassionate kind as well
    
               




               Letter from Professor Daniel N. Stern, Geneva, on
               December 5, 1993, to this author on the manuscript
               'Born with the Other in Mind':


               Dear Professor Stein Bråten,

               First, I want to tell you how much I appreciate
               your recent book.

               I think it is a major contribution. I
               congratulate you.

               Secondly, I regret to tell you that I will be in
               the U.S. at the time of [your] symposium on
               Intersubjectivity..." in August, 1994. I will
               not be able to attend as it falls during our
               family holidays. It sounds terrific and I will
               certainly miss much.

               I don't know if you have any plans to be in
               this area soon -- ICIS in Paris in June? I shall
               visit my daughter in Göteborg, Sweden in April.
               Perhaps there is some way to get together.

               Yours Sincerely
               Dan Stern
