ALWYN C. SCOTT

1931 - 2007    

We regret to announce the passing of CCS co-founder Al Scott after a long illness.

Al was a wonderful man and a good friend who pioneered nonlinear science and         emergence and applied them to the study of consciousness.

Al’s book “Stairway to the Mind” is the classic work on emergence of consciousness,  and his last book “The nonlinear universe” will appear later this year. Al is survived

by his loving wife Lynn MacNeill, daughter Leila and sons Emmon and Alwyn Jr.

Click here for Al’s story as told by Alwyn Jr.
