Ok, seriously, has anyone heard of this guy? In the process of continuing
my work on situating theories of computation within the context of
syntactic categories, I found myself down a rabbit hole leading to this
thinker. A F Parker-Rhodes' book[0] "The Theory of Indistinguishables" has
at the very least a table of contents worth perusing.

The wikipedia article[1] depicts an individual with a diversity of his deep
interests, publications and public affiliations resembling the penchants of
some I have met through Friam. Somehow it still surprises me when I
discover a Lewis Fry Richardson or Per Martin-Löf so late in life. Is A F
Parker-Rhodes another of these?
