Nature is, when reflected upon, unity within diversity, union of the manifoldness in form and variety, quintessence of things natural and natural forces, a living whole. The most important result of research on nature therefore is: to discover unity in the manifoldness, to recognize individual discoveries made in the past, to assess these without surrendering to their mass, and, mindful of the unique rôle of the human species, capture the essence of nature which is hidden under the surface of outward appearances.
