Welcome to the list Kestrell.
You are brave indeed to publically post your masters' thesis.
As I said, welcome.

I'm guessing that "science f" is another shortened term for science fiction,

www.blindbookworm.org/decloakingdisabilitycomplete.rtf
and included an online bibliography
http://www.panix.com/~kestrell/DecloakingDisabilityBiblio.html .
