It seemed to me that Jeeves rather enjoyed his life with Wooster. Perhaps he merely found Wooster amusing. Perhaps he had, like an idle bet, committed himself to the challenge of turning Wooster from a rather ignoble gentleman, into a much more respectable personage. Simply to prove he could do it. I recall the movie Changing Places has something in common with that premise, but it was quite long ago since I watched it, so perhaps not.

An interesting collection of topics. So from the Biocivilisations review, the book seems more about science than I was expecting. I'd be more than surprised if current scientific understanding has anything useful to add about consciousness much less panpsychism or animism.

I actually did major in philosophy, but unfortunately the philosophy department only cared about Anglos. The honors college had a bit about continentals, but never anything about process philosophy. (Well, some Heidegger.) Anyhow, I just went and read the stanford entry on Bergson. I can't say I could see much relation to panpsychism. But then perhaps the article wasn't sufficient for me to really understand duration; it is a rather different way of looking at things.
