God's gift to man.(Creators: From Chaucer and Durer to Picasso and Disney)(Book review)
Creators: From Chaucer and Durer to Picasso and Disney, by Paul Johnson (HarperCollins, 320 pp., $25.95)

Johnson defined the beast as "someone who thinks ideas are more important than people," and proceeded to take readers on an entertaining, though decidedly unedifying, tour of typical intellectuals from Shelley and Karl Marx to Bertrand Russell and D. H. Lawrence. My, what an unlovely tribe! Self-absorbed, hypocritical louts, most of them, infatuated above all with the thought of their own higher virtue.
