ABSTRACT

It is the best of times, it is the worst of times; it is the age of wisdom, it is the age of foolishness; it is the epoch of belief, it is the epoch of incredulity; it is the season of light, it is the season of darkness, it is the spring of hope; we have everything before us, we have nothing before us; we are all going directly to Heaven, we are all going the other way.2 It is the age of lifelong learning.
