Despite the title tag science timeline, this is not meant to include all science, that is to say all knowledge, rather just the knowledge which people have accumulatedin the Westabout the things over which they have, as yet, little control. This is the nature to which I refer. It includes the traditional exact sciences, mathematics, and the hilosophy of science and it excludes art and society and the thinking about many other things. On the other hand, new layers of consciousness, for example, certain moments in the creation of representational and abstract painting and of historical riting, are included as important marks in the evolution of thinking about nature. This remains a work in progress; your comments and suggestions are invited.
