  I finally located a copy of George Lakoff's "Women, Fire, and
Dangerous Things:  What Categories Reveal about the Mind" and
a quick look through the chapters seems to indicate that it
is an interesting synthesis.

  Anyone out there read it already?  I am interested in what
those with more experience in AI than I have think of Lakoff's
approach to categorization.
