Well there it is. "Minder" of less, or below and "Uber" of above or higher. Adler uses language so precisely that it is most enjoyable. You can feel the tension between these two poles as they pull against each other. I now have a better appreciation of the I/F and Superiority notions. And Uberlegen has the same sense as "stratified rock" or at least it would be used of layered materials. So there is a lying on top of something sense to the word. (Perhaps we could call it, for fun, an "on top of the world" feeling.) Yes, the German is more precise. The translators have done an excellent job and I am not suggesting I could improve on it. It is just that subtle things get lost in tranlsation. This can not be helped. Many thanks Henry.
