His life, as told by Allan Edward Young, Ph.D., Columbia University, 1967. Reflections I is part fact, part fantasy, and part folly. There have been semi-interchangeable careers in the academic, government consulting, and business investment-advisory fields. There have been both lifelong and brief friendships and relations of both dubious and inestimable value. There's been extended work and travel on each of the world's continents, save Antarctica. There's been some successes and some most regrettable errors on his part which, at times, have greatly hurt others. And what has this all really added up to? That, he does not truly know. But he thought he might better approach an answer by setting some of these things down in story form.
