Title: Historicizing a Dream of Complete Science.
Authors: Zakariya, Nasser
Abstract: The article explores the concept of "complete science" as reflected in a dream reported by the physicist George Gamow shortly before his death. It delves into the implications of this dream and its resonance with broader discussions within the history and philosophy of science regarding the completeness or finality of scientific knowledge. It examines how different historical contexts and cultural factors shape interpretations of scientific aspirations and achievements.
