Gilbert mentions “ No one can imagine every feature and consequence of a future event, hence we must consider some and fail to consider others (Gilbert 224-225).” Gilbert wants us to know that no matter what happens, no one can really imagine every detail that will take place in the
* Referent power – generally known as personal power or charisma and comes from the high regard the individual is held by others should this falter or wane then this form of power vanishes, but is often employed in conjunction with other sources.
