The Ingenious Mind of Nature: Deciphering the Patterns of Man, Society, and the Universe

Summary: Cataloguing the Universe
Review: I picked up this book while passing it in the library. I thought it was a different book (Mind and Nature) but i was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't.

This guy is a phenom! In this book, a bit technical, he outlines the domains of various sciences and their relationships to and between each other. It doesn't go into the detail and grime of specific books, nor is it a 'cross-discipline' analysis, rather it tells you how far disciplines are from each other! It's like a taxonomy of the universe and the university.

I think this will help anybody make sense of the chaos we call a univeristy system. It helps you figure out exactly what people are studying and what they aren't studying. It would help if you've been through college and you still want to know what to do with your life because the information is technical, but it should be read by people going into college.

If you ever wanted to know a little bit about a lot, this is the book.
