The content of this website can be viewed in one of two manners:

A chronological timeline showing the extensive interdependence of the various schools and assisting the viewer with historical data to place the schools in context.
A substantive forum which reviews each of the schools in greater detail, omitting much of the historical perspective, but providing extensive web content on each school.

We suggest that any serious research involve both presentation manners. We also suggest that you read our disclaimer and legal information.
