Abstract

It is with pleasure that I write this essay dedicated to my dear friend C. Eric Lincoln. I knew Eric for over 50 years. We first met as graduate students at the University of Chicago and since those graduate student days we were in touch, in friendship, in scholarly ventures, in collaborations and deliberations about our work. It was a rich and rewarding association.
