Abstract


Physics as a Building Project in Need of Design Review

Cynthia Kolb Whitney
Year: 2008 Pages: 18

This paper develops a blueprint for the historical development of physics in general, highlighting present-day contributions from NPA participants in particular. The metaphor for physics as a building project involves a number of unwieldy building blocks in not-completely-stable relation to each other. Stresses and strains are pointed out, and redesign/rebuilding efforts are recommended.
