One of the criteria to a strong principle in natural sciences is simplicity. The conventional view holds that the world is provided with natural laws that must be simple. This common-sense approach is a modern rewording of the medieval philosophical/theological concept of the Multiple arising from (and generated by) the One. Humans need to pursue unifying frameworks, classificatory criteria and theories of everything. Still, the fact that our cognitive abilities tend towards simplification and groupings does not necessarily entail that this is the way the world works. Here we ask: what if singularity does not pave the way to multiplicity? How will we be sure if the Ockham’s razor holds in real life? We will show in the sequel that the propensity to reduce to simplicity the relationships among the events leads to misleading interpretations of scientific issues. We are not going to take a full sceptic turn: we will engage in active outreach, suggesting examples from biology and physics to demonstrate how a novel methodological antiunitary approach might help to improve our scientific attitude towards world affairs. We will provide examples from aggregation of SARS-Cov-2 particles, unclassified extinct creatures, pathological brain stiffness. Further, we will describe how antiunitary strategies, plagiarising medieval concepts from William od Ockham and Gregory of Rimini, help to explain novel relational approaches to quantum mechanics and the epistemological role of our mind in building the real world.

Antimatter is a realm of physics that has long been a favorite of
science fiction. When two things or forces annihilate each other
simultaneously, that is seemingly beyond strange. What causes
real antimatter, and how it has worked to help make the visible
universe we know and love, is a detective story that this essay
elucidates.

An analogy between metaphysics and physics is introduced. We will discuss phenomena in history, philosophy, politics, religions, ideologies, activisms in a unified framework. This could be ‘a’, if not ‘the’, unified field theory or theory of everything //:-)

This essay describes a major medical discovery wrapped inside a
real family hospital crisis. The author was by misfortune at the
anonymous center, but it could have involved anybody else outside
the myopic hospital medical community. What was discovered
was a too-obvious revelation about how to fix a dangerous medical
protocol that was leading to untold thousands of tube-fed patients
needlessly dying a painful death.

While discussing the project management challenges in developing countries like India with respect to western developed countries it was revealed that standard PMBok based project management may not be entirely suitable as well as applicable to a large diverse country like India. The built-in complexities require accounting many local factors. These factors force a developing nation like India to remain way behind the western countries for the ease of project management and execution. This paper intends to highlight the approaches which can bring more comfort in execution of projects and their management closer to the developed nations.
