Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present trend in computer ontology is toward the development of artificial intelligence and human ontology is an intervention to positively support it with natural human intelligence such that it is infused with the pluralism that characterises human social structures. This book utilises a meta-narrative that examines the life of an academically failed physician and his relatively academically successful daughter. The short individual narrative beads that are threaded into this larger narrative represent a multi-genre science and fantasy of medicine. On one hand it balances a post-modern stance with its incredulity toward absolute evidence based truth on the other a tolerant pluralism that simply recognises all approaches as credible as long as the resultant is geared toward positive outcomes (and not driven by fear of negative outcomes).The book portrays a non-linear narrative ontology interspersed in linear discourses on its relevance to human cognition and ontology.
