General Neurolinguistics is meant to corresponds to the major revision of General Semantics that Alfred Korzybski mentioned on numerous occasions as most likely to occur within 25 years of his passing away (1950), and that naturally emerges from it when the mental barrier due to the unwarranted certainty that physical reality cannot be confirmed with certainty and cannot be objectively understood is removed. Interestingly, the analysis leading to this particular revision began to be carried out in the 1970's, that is, within the time frame that Korzybski expected, even though it could be fully documented and related to the complete set of required formal references only much later, due to the time that was required to identify, locate and correlate every major element of the solution that led to the present synthesis.
