"Peary relates that on his polar trip he traveled one whole day toward the north, making his sleigh dogs run briskly. At night he checked his bearings to determine his latitude and noticed with great surprise that he was much further south than in the morning. He had been toiling all day toward the north on an immense iceberg drawn southwards by an ocean current."
Human beings are in the same situation as Commander Peary on the iceberg, Man's experience is determined by his interaction with the environment.
