So can ya blame them when the 'big picture' is supposed to look
like this ?
… According to this, there is no such thing as 'General Physics' anyway … its either Thermodynamics, Mechanics, Mineralogy, Optics or Electricity and Magnetism .. and if one sticks to these topics, one is invariably talking about pre 19th Century History !
Ie: if you're a modern Physicist you have to slot into one,
but only one, of these boxes, otherwise you're out of your box … and you're a very naughty scientist: Cryogenics; Statistical Mechanics; Quantum Mechanics; Particle Physics; Nuclear Physics; Plasma Physics; Atomic Physics; Molecular Physics; Solid-State Physics and Relativity Physics !
It beats me how anyone could be seen to be speaking from a clearly-defined area of expertise !??!!
