2 or 3 things I know about her

While recovering from the flu, I have continued to read Cosma's Notebooks-- yet another entry on the subject of selforganization with a note to follow up on the entry,  Is the Primordial Soup Done Yet?.

The subject at hand deserves a nod to the notion of self-organizing criticality,  which points back to the title of the post, a novel written by Dawn Powell. 

Left at the gates, the Gaits of Eden, there is only one piece left in the puzzle, 1947, which is the publication date of Ms. Powell's novel.
