In essence, the unexpected conclusion from the translation of this book was that over the past thousand years or so there had been a general deterioration in our understanding of ourselves and the world, a deterioration in which the vast majority of people had begun to think of things not as they can be understood, but simply as they appear at a cursory glance, taken without intervening thought. As I hope to show later in a separate book, not only did these factors suggest that the change has been in some ways harmful to our humanity, but they gave pointers to ways in which this damage might be undone. This is one of the reasons for raising this question in such a book as this; to explain that these observations have determined the way in which we have translated certain words, because to translate them in this way provides a number of clues to the deeper meaning of the text. I am already convinced that this deeper meaning has the most practical significance.
