RIP Madeleine Pelner Cosman

From Don Kates: Madeleine Pelner Cosman has passed on. She was the author of "Medicalizing Guns," available here. Her obituary makes is clear that she would have agreed with Heinlien's dictum that a person should be able to do everything, "specialization is for insects!" She could do medieval cooking, play a lute, fly a plane, shoot a gun, publish papers in medical journals, and engage in politics.

"Ms. Cosman also leaves behind a vast library of illuminated manuscripts and a large collection of handguns."
