The following is a list of sources of information used to develop the definitions/principles printed in the Dec. 23 and Jan. 13 editions of the Times-Union as part of my series of letters on basic human freedoms. Those definitions are the following - Freedom of Thought & Inquiry, Freedom of Dissent and Freedom of Communication. The definition of Freedom of Religion was printed in the Times-Union earlier last year with the sources of information for those letters printed in the Times-Union earlier last year with the sources of information for those letters printed in 2005 and 2006. Most of the sources of information for these definitions can be found at the Warsaw Public Library for those interested in doing their won research.
