First Science is the most general of sciences. It underlies all the sciences. Whilst some may claim that mathematical physics holds this position, this is not so. Here we show that mathematical physics cannot, in principle, explain the Arrow of Time (i.e. that time has a direction). As a result, the sciences built around the Arrow of Time, such as biology, sociology and economics, cannot be reduced to mathematical physics. As such, a complete unified theory of nature, which includes the Arrow of Time, cannot be constructed within the framework of mathematical physics. Instead, if there is to be a complete unified theory, it must be based on a deeper science that unifies mathematical physics and the more complex sciences. The deeper, missing science is First Science. First Science is an empirical, logical, universal science. It provides the framework for mathematical physics (and physics, in general). It explains the natural world. In this book, we introduce and name the new field of First Science. We explain what it is and why it is needed. We postulate the foundations of the field. In short, this book is a manifesto for First Science.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A great pick for non-specialist general science readers,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: First Science: The Missing Science, the Theory of Everything, and the Arrow of Time (Paperback)
Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, are all sciences. But what unifies them under that one banner? "First Science: The Missing Science, the Theory of Everything, and the Arrow of Time" tries to identify the linking field among all of science with a new field designated as 'First Science'. Serving the most basic text to what is meant to be the most base of sciences. A solid introduction to his concept and a solid manual to science in general, "First Science" is a great pick for non-specialist general science readers.
