Jeremeanie pointed me to WriteRoom | Hog Bay Software (image below until they block me) which seems to give you your computer back. OF course, clicking on the Hide-Others button might do that too, but still, why not have a widget to do that.

Child neuropsychology is now becoming an increasingly important area as the once neglected field is seen as increasingly important both to understand children themselves, and how adult abilities and disorders develop.

Via Mind Hacks:
The New Yorker magazine has an article on hemispherectomies - surgical procedures which remove half of the cortex, usually in an attempt to cure otherwise life-threating epilepsy.
These operations are usually carried out on children, as remarkably, those in their early years can often develop normal adult skills and abilities if surgery is carried out early enough.
As someone who is planning to have brain surgery at some point, though aren’t we all, this is very interesting. The question comes down to not just how we learn, but combines with the notions of relearning, which we’re realizing is possible after catastrophic events.
