520 _ahis book is the fruit of an intensely personal experience, the dramatic events that broke out at Columbia University on April 23, 1968, and that have not yet ended as of this writing. These events forced me, as they did most persons caught up in them, to give more careful and concentrated consideration to questions that had long since been of concern but that were easier to leave in abeyance. History catches up with most of us and forces choices--political and moral--that we would not otherwise look forward to making. Once one makes these choices, one makes new worlds for oneself, new friends, new antagonists. The sudden changes can be very unsettling, and the passions of the moment can obliterate the rational reflections one should make upon the choices one has made.
