Abstract
During a single, dynamic year of the nineteenth century, politics, economics, culture and technology shifted sharply throughout disparate regions of the world. Some of these changes were culminating events, some sudden and swift, others would need time to take total effect – but all would be innovative, if not revolutionary. Is there plan or order among such historic inflection points, and what roles do care and precaution play in the process?
