I agree with most of the argument but would like to make a qualification which I regard as most important. A transition from order to disorder as system dynamics become more complex. There is an affirmative postmodern philosophy of science emerging out of these new sciences which stand against the nihilism and rejection of reason. This part of the postmodern critique is valid and deserves our respectful consideration. The part which is not helpful is the rejection, in their ignorance of affirmative postmodern philosophy of science, and in their blind acceptance of the truth claims of formalistic modernists, that all systematic, comparative, and qualitative research must therefore be abandoned.
Science is still possible even in the regions of great uncertainty.
There is a lot to learn, a lot to redo and a lot to know. The end of history and the age of irrationality is not upon us.
