In his lifetime, largely because of his successes, there came into widest acceptance that man could(32)by the use of his intelligence invent a new mode of life. No other person played so great a part as Edison in the change in human(33)expectation, and finally, by the effect of his widely distributed inventions plus a combination of the modern publicity teclmique, he was lifted in the popular imagination to a place where he was(34)looked upon not only as the symbol but as the creator of the new age. Edison also had a peculiar genius for carrying existing discoveries to the point where they could be(35)converted into practicable devices.
