Abstract

As we survey the history of the study that human beings have made of their environment and themselves, we find areas of investigation that are being divided and subdivided into increasingly specific categories. A chart that might be drawn to diagram these divisions and subdivisions would resemble similar attempts to delineate a family tree, or the evolution of vertebrates, or the development of language systems
