I think as Adrian talks more in terms of amateurs complementing, rather than replacing experts, we can envision using / becoming both.Gideon Burtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282494104976426309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441758389977123332.post-49504052889775897022016-03-07T08:33:39.686-07:002016-03-07T08:33:39.686-07:00Although I missed the many visuals that helped to ...Although I missed the many visuals that helped to pace your prior version, this one brings in an important historical component -- about which I would like to hear more detail. You need to add to your piece some contemporary sources that discuss the rise of the amateur.

Should we try to make a significant but small impact in many aspects of our lives, or should we take the time to become experts now and then make substantial contributions in a single area? This question obviously ties into the historical concept of specialization that began in the last 19th century (http://s-usih.org/2008/07/idea-of-specialization-john-higham-on.html). In essence the question is: Do we have enough people that are competent in enough areas to outweigh their collective impact that they could have if they all became experts in a single field?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06716509317748806517noreply@blogger.com
