Beschreibung
One of the paradoxes of the physical sciences is that as knowledge has progressed, more and more diverse physical phenomena can be explained in terms of fewer underlying laws, or principles. In "Hidden Unity, " eminent physicist Taylor puts many of these findings into historical perspective and documents how progress is made when unexpected, hidden unities are uncovered between apparently unrelated physical phenomena.
