A critique of the methodolgy of physics compares the modern "analytical" method with the older ?synthetic? method, with reference to the distinction between the respective schools of geometry. The synthetic approach is recommended as an alternative for the future of physics, and parallels are drawn to the Socratic method and to detective science. The discussion includes some historical literary references, and is supplemented with two exhibits.[[Category:Scientific Paper]]</div>Maintenance script
