I am currently writing a paper on augmentation/amplification of human
intelligence and am searching for sources of information and
discussion.  Emphasis will be on ways of understanding augmentation
and interaction.  I might focus in on hypertext and email as
examples of augmentation in communication.

I have had no difficulty identifying people (Bush, Engelbart,
Licklider, Nelson, and Kay) who wrote about these things many/several
years ago but have had difficulty finding materials providing overview
of the area written recently.

e.g. what is the current equivalent of Engelbart's "A conceptual
framework for the augmentation of mans's intellect"?

If people could post or email any pointers to the current literature I
would be grateful.

Thanks,
