This book mounts a decisive assault on a "holy element" of physical science: the construct of laws. Yet this is not a purely negative critique; it is driven by a constructive purpose, or telos. The investigation reveals a surprising result: evidence from the last few decades of scientific development shows that "soft-law" science has gained significant ground. This trend validates the author's central hypothesis-that traditional law-based science has inherent limits.The author begins by outlining a relevant history of physical science before exposing previously untold "dark points" within nomological, or law-based, science. These critiques reveal new openings for discovery.Finally, the principles of soft-law science are established. The book then explores creative ways to exploit these principles, reinventing known theories of physics within this revitalised paradigm-and does so to a profoundly fruitful extent.
