In her paper "Tilings will never be the same again" Dr Kathleen L. Wishner quoted Alvin Toffler's book Future Shock written in 1970. Toffler defined "future shock" as a time phenomenon, a product of the greatly accelerated change in society. The scientific research itself is a demonstration of this accelerated change. In particular, data systematized by Davidoff et al in this volume of Biomedical Reviews indicate the change in the understanding of the nature and origin of Leydig cells of the human testis.
