Hi. You have inadvertantly landed on the "Jack Lynch" website. There are many of us who share this name in the United States, in Ireland and likley other places as well. I am an obscure "Jack Lynch" but several others are very well known. In case you were hoping to find one of them I have posted some links to the right.
I am the Jack Lynch who has a grown son and daughter, studied electrical engineering at MIT and Stanford, worked at Lincoln Laboratory for twenty five years, is a social dancer of sorts (swing, cajun, English Country Dancing, Contra dancing and ballroom), has studied and written about animal and human cognition, has written about his expereinces in rowing lightweight crew at MIT, who lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts for over thirty years and now lives near Portland Maine.

John Mary "Jack" Lynch (1917 –1999) was the fourth Taoiseach of Ireland, (1966 to 1973 and 1977 to 1979). In the 1930s and ‘40s he was famous in Ireland for playing hurling and Gaelic football.
I have written three books called, I am not a Machine, which deal with human and animal cognition. They are subtitled as follows:
Book I: Thinking without Words
Book II: Thinking with Words
Book III: Rethinking cognitive psychology.

This memoir, Nice Row, MIT, relates how a squad of unathletic kids at a non jock school carrying the normal heavy academic work load that all MIT students carry somehow managed to live up to a legendary sprint and in their senior year became the "lightweight crew to beat." In the telling of the story I tried to catch a glimpse of what life at MIT is like as well as see how competitive intercollegiate athletics can be integrated with serious academic studies.
Michigan politics is the arena for this Jack Lynch.
