>>'art' and 'science'
>>art - visual, theatrical, litrature, or even just
>>thinking creativly.
>>science- medical, theoretical, 'proven'?, social
>>science?, explorative, chemical, biological, the
>>phrase ' an exact science'

>>then upsets- who: society? individuals? structures (ie
>>givernments? or religions), traditionals, progressive,
>>pragmatists, optemists, idealists?
>>and reassures: sences of security; true or false? mob
>>mentality, reasuurace= peace and security= luxury,
>>prosperity? percieved lucxury or prosperity?
>>
>>ok, then attack from historical perspective:
