Dear Michael,

In relation with "Category Theory for the Sciences", I would mention
the amplications of category theory I have been developing since more
than 25 years to the modeling of multi-scale living systems, such as
biological, cognitive and social systems.
Cf. my book with Jean-Paul Vanbremeersch
"Memory Evolutive Systems: Hierarchy, Emergence, Cognition", Elsevier 2007
and for more recent papers my site
http://ehres.pagesperso-orange.fr

This work is partially based on an extension of sketch theory, leading
to a characteization of the properties necessary for 'real' emergence.
Among the applications: model MENS for a neuro-cognitive-mental
system, from the neural level to mental processes, analyzing the
emergence of higher cognitive processes up to consciousness,
anticipation and creativity.

Kind regards
Andree
