“The same thing happened when I tried to discuss Chaucer with an American literature specialist, questioned an Orientalist about the Trobriand Islanders, and tried to focus on the problems of automation-caused unemployment with a social psychologist who specialized in public opinion polls on adolescent behavior. They would always find excuses to slip away, afraid to reveal the narrowness of their knowledge.”
Flowers For Algernon, Daniel Keyes

Specialisation and ignorance.

One of the books that made the biggest impressions on me as a kid was Flowers for Algernon (which I read far, far younger than was advisable as an advanced and voracious reader).

So I have to say that now living through an unacknowledged and unchecked pandemic that causes cognitive impairment and watching it steadily erode the people around me is a very particular kind of waking nightmare.
