It should be noted, that I nor does the EU refer to the work that Dr. Cornwell cites. I suggest that when researching transdisciplinary and transdisciplinarity that you first start with encyclopedias and other basic reference works and then move up to known research bodies including the state bodies in germany, switzerland, austria, and the e.u. that deal with the topic before you look at the french sites recently provided. There are quite significant groups inside the U.S. that work on and define transdisciplinary work. In short, take what someone finds on the internet with a grain of salt.
