A Problem in Communication
_By Miles J. Breuer, M.D._
PART I
_The Science Community_
(This part is related by Peter Hagstrom, Ph.D.)
"The ability to communicate ideas from one individual to another," said
a professor of sociology to his class, "is the principal distinction
between human beings and their brute forbears. The increase and
refinement of this ability to communicate is an index of the degree of
civilization of a people. The more civilized a people, the more perfect
their ability to communicate, especially under difficulties and in
emergencies."
