What is Reminiscences in Influential Papers about?
This new column celebrates the process of scienti c inquiry by examining, in an anecdotal fashion, how ideas spread and evolve.Fundamentally, we are in this business to embrace the novel concepts that intrigue and delight us. These insights are generated or discovered by one or a few, then somehow propagated through the fabric of the intellectual community, via publication, presentation, and informal conversation. However, the transference is often more accidental than intentional. The common model is of a researcher having a question and searching for the paper that answers that question. Seemingly just as prevalent is a haphazard event. The researcher comes across a paper that touches something deep inside, triggering a radical restructuring of their mental model and allowing them to see things in a new light. Timing is important: often that paper or interaction would not have had such a profound e ect if encountered earlier or later.
