Authors/speakers Title of piece Date of conference Place of conference

One source is dated 1999, but there is no indication that that was the 1st one on the topic We don’t know WHO led the way in this research That’s a generalization; we see the passage as only 1 example of the author’s writing, so how are we to know the style of his/her other pieces?
