I'm not sure that this is really any truer now than it was decades ago. One of my favorite books on research was Beveridge's "The Art of Scientific Invesitgation", published in the 1950s. It would still be a good read today, although some parts might be humorous for new reasons. But the playwright George Benard Shaw was quoted therein, "Reading rots the mind." Getting up to date is intrinsically a difficult process, and you never "get" there, because the clock keeps ticking. The best you can do is try to understand the world around you a little better. If you're a PT, hopefully the thing that you go to the trouble of trying to understand a bit better has some practical value. ...
