"Yes, we are dazzled by mobile phones, cameras, digital TV, and the WWW, by laser-guided surgery and bombs, by DNA fingerprinting, and now by cloning. These are not【S7】______things but do they change the way we think in important--in fundamental--directions ?"
Watson quotes Richard Southern, Oxford University historian, who died last year: "Southern thought the most interesting times in history were 1050-1250 and 1750-1950."
