The Map of Critical Thinking and Modern Science

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the that-would-take-awhile dept.

Jamie noticed an interesting map of critical thinking and science done in a sort of subway style. You can track Newton and Einstein and Tesla and so on. It's actually pretty interesting to navigate.

    Very similar to "The Great Bear" by Simon Patterson

    This map at first glance appears to be decidedly western individuals only.

    Well, perhaps you might list some important non-Western scientists from the last 500 years which the map covers who are missing from it, so that they might be added in?

    Besides, as a quick test, at least Jagadish Chandra Bose, Andrey Kolmogorov and Min Chueh Chang seem to have made it in.
