An interesting question to ponder over, on a lazy Sunday evening:
For each field of study, what's the one word that is central, top-of-mind and can act as the defining fundamental, building block or the representative summary of that field?
I tried to come up with some of them:
Geography: Maps
History: Dates
Journalism: News
Literature: Letters
Languages: Syllables
Philosophy: Thought
Law: Justice
Arts: Expression
Mathematics: Numbers
Geometry: Point
Chemistry: Elements
Physics: Forces
Electrical Engineering: Currents
Computer Engineering: Binary
Biology: Cell
Sociology: Society
Psychology: Person
Marketing: Customers
Economics: Demand-Supply (slight bending of rules here...)
Finance: Capital
Astronomy: Celestial
Religion: Belief
Architecture: Structure
Education: Learning
Agriculture: Crops
Medicine: Healing
Management: Decisions
Political Science: Collective
Accounting: Balance
