The Fundamental Sciences on the Way To Unity
Philipp M. Kanarev
Keywords: fundamental sciences, unity of the microworld
It is known that physics and chemistry are the leaders among the fundamental sciences. The state of their unity was described most vividly by G. Wheeler, the American scientist, in this article "The Quantum and the Universe", which was published in the collection "Astrophysics, quanta and relativity theory" (M.: Mir, 1982). He recorded a conversation between the valedictorians, physicists and chemists, which demonstrates a dead state of disunity of the fundamental sciences, and obliges us to think about its reasons. Now, world science is in the state of a breakthrough in understanding the unity of the microworld; that is why there is every reason to predict a movement of scientific thought in this direction.
