Abstract

This Chapter presents the rationale for the book, defines the problem to be solved along with the challenges that need to be overcome, and concludes with an introduction to the circulation control comprehensive methodology that is followed and will be detailed in the subsequent Chapters.

If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted as true is really true, there would be little hope of advance
