This narrowing of focus has enabled us to probe deeper into ever-narrower areas of study. While this has enabled us to create a world of technological wonders, it has also encouraged us to confuse ends with means. All too often great discoveries are accompanied by costs which outweigh their benefits. Furthermore, despite successes in certain areas of science and mathematics, other areas, particularly those relating to the biosciences and cosmology, have not been amenable to standard scientific modeling. Recently we have begun to realize that our scientific theories and mathematical systems are incomplete, and we have attempted to create new models to explain the otherwise unexplainable. On the other hand, ancient cultures attempted to understand the natural world from their own perspective which may add novel and petviously undiscovered insights into the investigation and analysis of current problems. ...
