Abstract

I suppose it is generally true that for most of the established professions, those who are outside any particular ‘magic circle’ regard the business which is carried on inside it as a complete mystery; full of pitfalls for the unwary; needing an enormous amount of hard work and training to get to the ‘top of the tree’; closely protected by an association or society, or even by the law!—and so on.
