Well, I've come to think that very few people in *any* field have much grasp
of their disciplines' theoretical and historical underpinnings. I've known
theologically illiterate pastors, economically illiterate financial

heard of Bernard Shaw or Anton Chekhov. It didn't keep any of them from
being very capable practitioners.
