To understand the fundamentals of any discipline, I have always found it
completely worthwhile to go back to the original source, where the idea was
first discovered or presented. This is really, really valuable, although not
always possible. I wonder whether others agree with me about this...but I
feel pretty strongly about this matter. Often one can read many reviews on
some subject, which never really get to the gist of the matter, but when one
reads the original source, the subject is usually laid out clearly because
guess what: nobody knew it yet, so it had to be explained clearly.
Furthermore, one gets a sense of the excitement of discovery, and the
unsurety about some new proposed hypothesis which has not yet become
cannonized into fact. For this reason, it is sometimes even worthwhile to
saunter down to the...library!
