It would be satisfying perhaps to think of our collective work as at the forefront of the development of what will become A Grand Domain of Science, but I would say the better trend in current science is toward careful integration between domains rather than toward established grand divisions, whic

Jeremy -- It is no longer so easy to declare that the physicochemical realm has no end-rirectednes. There is a burgeoning viewpoint -- the maximizing entropy production principle (MEPP) -- that proposes an end for all actions and activities whatever. In my version, it is the constitutively poor e

Hi Pedro, Thanks for sharing this beautiful and instructive image. I wonder if it should actually be more accurate as a higher dimensional graph or if rather than ambiguous overlap if there is some degree of containment in these relationships. — Terry On 1/19/15, Pedro C. Marijuan wrote: > Than

Pedro, this image is strongly related to my research. My graduation and master degree was in Physics. But now I am in IS world through PhD program of IBICT/UFRJ in Brazil. As you, Jorge and Raquel said (Navarro, Moral, Marijuan, 2013), IS is about to become one of four great scientific domains. Don

Dear Moises, Guy, Stan---and colleagues, I would not agree with the "silo" interpretation of scientific domains, at least that's not the way Rosenbloom and many others (myself included) understand them. See the reference mentioned below by Moises and my own (Scientomics: An emergent perspectiv

I agree with Pedro. That is the way I understand that the concept of "Domain" must be discussed in Information Science. About the "explosion" in number of disciplines, this is analized and called "Knowledge Pathology (Patologia do Saber)" by Hilton Japiassu (a great brazilian philosopher) and in hi
