	All In The Mind - 10/3/2002: Feature Interview: Susan Greenfield Contemplates Consciousness (transcript now available)
		Susan Greenfield: Well exactly, that’s exactly why I decided to do brain research because until that time I’d been much more preoccupied with the arts subjects, literature and history but primarily with philosophy, I was interested as the ancient Greeks were in the concepts of mind and the issue of accountability and responsibility.
		Susan Greenfield: Yes, he was a very great philosopher but one has to put them in the context of the times, and the context of the times to have denied the spiritual would have been heresy.
		Susan Greenfield: I think it’s a rather pointless quest, it does echo the phrenology of course of the 19th Century when people thought the bumps on their head would be autonomous mini brains concerned with very specific functions like banality or love of children, and love of country being another bump.

	The Science Show: 7 January 2006 - Susan Greenfield and Bob Carr
		Susan Greenfield: No, not at all, no, no I think this notion that we have is atavistic urges for destruction or creation, that we have another way in which we try and interpret that into the context of how we’re living.
		Susan Greenfield: This is interesting because we’re coming back to the determinism argument again of free will or not free will and is it their fault, is it something in their brain or is it their choice which is an interesting issue.
		Susan Greenfield: Well no, no, but of course philosophers will argue whether you’re there at all, or what you’re seeing is there in reality, but if you suspend that issue then that is not a belief, that is something that you’ve learnt from facts presented to you.

	Baroness Susan Greenfield - Saxton Speaker Bureau
		Baroness Susan Greenfield, Fullerian Professor of Physiology and Comparative Anatomy at Oxford University, heads a team of scientists who are focused on the genetics of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.
		If Susan Greenfield is a ubiquitous media figure it's because not only does she talk about the brain so clearly but she also passes on some of the excitement of working with scientific ideas.
		Susan was the first member of her family to go to university — her mother was a chorus girl, her father an electrician — and she grew up with this idea that everything was a laugh.

	Susan Greenfield's 'Brain Story' - Part 4 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The central question Greenfield was trying to address is 'What is it exactly that seems to set humanity apart from the animal kingdom?' It was inevitable that chimpanzees would feature on the programme because of their genetic closeness to ourselves and their intelligence.
		Professor Greenfield was almost dismissive about the genetic similarity between humans and chimpanzees; for her there is still a great gulf represented by the remaining 1%.
		Susan Greenfield is right in asserting human uniqueness; but I cannot see where we derive our value from in a naturalist framework, other than the abilities and capacities she discusses.

		Susan Greenfield gets to grip with the most important of these changes and most importantly with the effects they are going to have on future generations.
		But as she rightly points out, the main danger is going to be the growing divide between the technologically advanced world and the rest which will, as she says, be the vast majority.
		As Susan Greenfield warns, "the bottom line of this book is that the private ego is the most precious thing we each have, and it is far more vulnerable now than ever before".

		For Greenfield, the importance of such a code of conduct is clearly demonstrated by the frenzied media coverage generated by Arpad Pusztai's pronouncements on 'poisonous' GM potatoes in February 1999.
		Greenfield admits that 'Guidelines on Science and Health Communication' does not deal with 'the speed with which scientists need to address issues', and she is currently working on this.
		In conjunction with others, Greenfield is hoping to establish a new science media centre, providing a focal point from which scientists can explain the nature of their work, discuss its consequences, and engage in public discussion over the benefits and risks.

	Greenfield, Mothering Daughters
		Greenfield’s attention to the intersections among gender, the marketplace, the novel, and intellectual culture at large shares a common critical lexicon with the works of Nancy Armstrong, Janet Todd, Catherine Gallagher, and Claudia L. Johnson.
		Greenfield complicates the works of these and other 18th Century scholars by exploring paradigmatic shifts in mother-daughter relationships that occur across history, both in its public and private senses, because of tangible factors as seemingly disconnected as breastfeeding and colonialism.
		The analyses that Greenfield provides are themselves significant but Greenfield also opens interpretive doorways with her trenchant observations and her delightful mixture of theory, history, cultural materialism, feminism, and literature.

		Susan Greenfield is both a scientist at the forefront of brain research and a lecturer with wide experience of making difficult ideas accessible to the general public, including children.
		At the outset, Greenfield makes an important distinction between two possible kinds of theory: those which identify what particular elements or events in the brain make up the mind, and those which account for how the mind actually emerges from them.
		Greenfield gives it a solid 'nuts and bolts' basis in brain function, aiming to get beyond metaphor and establish a physical basis for gestalt.
