There are two complementary views of scientific advance: the "heroes" view, individual geniuses driving unique one-of-a-kind advances, and the "multiple discovery" or zeitgeist view, that the time is ripe for a discovery, and the details of who makes it first, where, and how are, well, details.(1/3)
