  • Abstract
    It has been predicted that the scientist of the future would necessarily be forced to become a narrow specialist on account of the great volume of accumulated information on a multiplicity of subjects. It seems, however, that this tendency to narrowness will be fully compensated by an opposite one in the form of general or universal laws which apply with equal force to many or all branches of science. Such universal laws might make it possible for even a mediocre mind of the future to comprehend as easily as a brilliant mind of the present, branches as widely separated as chemistry and psychology.
