First sentence: "I’d like to know the Thoughts of God, the rest are details", said Einstein, limited by his lack of interest in Quantum Theory and Evolution, to observe an abstract, mathematical, continuous image of the Universe; without understanding that those ‘details’ were what really mattered. Since all what exists, including human beings and the Universe at large, are fractal,, cellular networks made of spatial energy and temporal information, the 2 substances of the Universe, that combine,  forming all its systems. So we could say that ‘The Universe is a 4 dimensional  fractal of spatial energy and temporal information’ and God a painter with 2 colors… 



1.  2 different approaches to the Unification of Science.

Einstein spent the last 20 years of his life searching for a Unification Theory, which could gather all the forces of the Universe into a single equation, a feat that from the perspective of physicists would be the cornerstone to their theoretical explanation of the Universe. Since physicists sponsor a philosophy of the Universe called ‘platonism’ or ‘mathematical simplicity’, which means that the ultimate reality should be described with a few, simple mathematical elements, constituents of that underlying reality.  In words of Galileo: God speaks mathematics. In mythic terms, we could say that God uttered in the beginnings of Time such equation, which generated through geometrical symmetries and decouplings of new particles, the entire zoo of forms we observe in the Universe. 
In fact it would be more accurate to affirm that Einstein was looking for a few dynamic, geometrical forms, which are what physical equations describe. The very same Plato had stated that ‘numbers had forms’. And equations were nothing but the description of forms in movements, forms-in-action, in-form-ation of geometrical nature. What were those universal forms and how they evolved into each other? Could we resume those forms and their movements in a fundamental set of numbers and symbols? So thought Einstein. And he kept searching for that equation after finishing General Relativity. But he failed. 
50 years have passed since Einstein died and every other physicist who has attempted to unify the 2 physical forces of the Universe, gravitation and electromagnetism and his theoretical explanations, Relativity and Quantum Theory, has failed. The closest thing to such Unification is a Theory called String Theory that at best, reduces reality to 2 geometrical forms, the lineal string and the closed string.
What we can learn from that failure? The most obvious conclusion is to suppose that the Universe is dual: there are 2 irreducible forces or scales to reality, the invisible cosmos of gravitation and dark matter and the human cosmos of light and radiant matter, which can be reduced to 2 Universal geometries, the cyclical form that in string theory describes gravitation, and the lineal form that describes better electromagnetism. And that is why we cannot reduce them to a single equation, or rather we have to write an equation with 2 different dynamic forms, the line and the cycle, whose nature we will inquire latter on.
But the second conclusion is bolder and ignited an entire new discipline of science, as it was formulated 50 years ago, precisely on the occasion of Einstein’s death: Perhaps physics didn’t have enough tools to unify our comprehension of the Universe and we needed some other principles and languages besides ‘mathematical simplicity’? Mathematics were a language which described very well the mathematical properties of the Universe, concerned specifically with geometry, the science of space. But perhaps, thought some congressists at the Macy’s conference hold 50 years ago on occasion of Einstein’s death to inquire about the future of science, we should widen our methodology of science to research a wider Unification of the principles that ruled the Universe? But what other languages/principles besides mathematical simplicity, repeated constantly in the Universe? The congressists at Macy’s, mathematicians, biologists, technicians of information sciences, physicists and philosophers came to the conclusion that most of those principles were of biological nature: forms in the Universe tend to evolve into more efficient forms, as Darwin had rightly explained a century before. Forms in the Universe were created repeatedly with the same forms, with a tendency to organize themselves in herds that created bigger systems and structures. So atoms became molecules that became cells that became organisms that became societies… growing in size, and then decaying and becoming extinct after a certain time in ‘existence’ in a process similar to the cycle of death and life of living beings. Those processes could sometimes be described with numbers and equations, but its nature escaped mathematical rationality; its causes were biological, a will to exist, a game of survival and social organization that created ‘numbers’, sets of social, equal cells… 
So a new Science, called General Systems Sciences, was born, out of the realization that Mathematical Physics did not have enough content and linguistic tools to understand the Universe. That biological principles of self-organization, evolution and survival were needed to explain many details of that Universe and some of its fundamental quantic properties: its capacity to create herds of similar species from the atom to the galaxy, that organize themselves and evolve in cyclical patterns of  creation and destruction… Some scientists thus concluded at the Macy’s conferences that there should be a science of sciences, which could merge together the logic principles of Organic Evolution and the mathematical laws of form and movement that define the sciences of biology and physics into a single set of logical laws and equations.
General Systems Theory is therefore the alternative, Unification Theory of scientific knowledge, to the Physical Grand Unification Theory that searches only for the mathematical Unification of Physical forces. It was born out of the limitations of Physical Theory and though it has a shorter name, its scope is far wider than that of the Grand Unification Theory, as we shall see in this book.
Description: The book describes the Universe as a fractal made of energy and information, in which all parts are self-similar to the whole. Spatial energy and temporal information, the substances of which we are made, are two formal motions: cycles or clocks of information and lines or flows of energy combine in more complex structures, whose chains, networks and 'universal constants' define an arrow of constant evolution towards more complex structures. 
The division of the book in 5 parts is due to the wide scope of a Unification Theory that encompasses all sciences: In the first Book we develop the General Structures and Laws of System Sciences, which we apply to the Logic and Mathematical Languages of mankind (Book II), to Physical Sciences (Book III), Natural Sciences (Book IV) and Socio-economical Sciences (Book V):

Book I: A General Systems Theory
In Book I we define in mathematical and verbal terms the Unification Equation: 'All what exist is an organism of fractal spatial energy and temporal, cyclical information; E<=>T'. Departing from that simple postulate, we introduce the 2 substances/forms of the Universe, fractal, spatial energy and cyclical, temporal information, their fundamental laws and basic structure: the organism of energy and information, analysing the causes of its movement, perception, morphology, life and death, common to all beings.
The Book treats with broad strokes the general laws of space and time, its systems and organisms, studied in more detail in the second book. Its simplicity obeys to the fact that to understand the other books that show the empirical proves of GST in natural and social sciences, described in great detail some its organic systems, to the level of specialists, we don't need the sophisticated tools of spatial mathematics and temporal logic used in the second part. In that regard the reader who is not familiar with mathematics and logic can escape the second Book and move to the sciences he is most familiar with, each one dealt in a different chapter of the other books.

Book II: ‘Languages of Space&Time’: Non-Euclidean Geometry. Non-Aristotelian logic.
Yet, we want to study a theme of so much importance, as vital space and cyclical time is, with enough detail to advance the current explanations provided by mathematics, the language of space and logic, the language of time; in as much as the laws of fractal Space and Cyclical Time, that determine the behavior of organic systems follow logic  languages more complex than the Euclidean geometry and Aristotelian Logic used by current sciences. So once, we have widen the syntax of the languages of space and time man uses to understand the Universe and defined the laws of all organic systems we will be able to ‘improve’ our understanding of the specific S-T species of the Universe in the following books:

Book: III Macrocosms. ‘The Organic Universe'.
Book III studies under those laws and new languages, the biggest of all organic systems, the Universe and its smaller units, galaxies, black holes and stars. We do so, from the perspective of cyclical time, through the study of the evolution of the Universe from the Big-bang to the big crunch (); and from the spatial, organic perspective, through the study of galaxies and its organic elements, black holes, stars and forces.

Book: IV: ‘Microcosms: Atomic systems.’
Book IV takes the opposite path in the study of the different S/T systems of the Universe departing from the smallest systems known to man, gravitational and electromagnetic forces (), then growing in size, analyzing the different organisms of space/time that  each science studies, from particles to atoms to cells to living organisms, till reaching the human organism. Thus, we show how the laws of space/time systems are fulfilled by all beings, from the smaller quantum (ch.11, 12), to the cell to the greater galaxy (ch.14).
Again as in the case of the Universe we make both a temporal, evolutionary analysis of those organic systems, and a synchronic, spatial analysis of their inner structure.
As any Fractal Organic Systems has to be understood first analytically in its fractal spatial and temporal properties, and then synthetically putting together both substances into a specific form.

Book V: Man on Earth: Socio-economical Sciences
Finally, Book V focuses on the human social scale and the planetary ecosystems, which include not only the Earth as a Natural organism (the so called 'Gaia hypothesis') but also human organic societies, religions and civilizations that shape the organic system of history () and economic ecosystems (global markets). We have chosen among all Universal systems the Earth’s ecosystems to do a more detailed analysis because it is the most important for man.
Thus we explain in the same manner, physical, biological and social sciences, showing how man has evolved from cells to civilizations as a fractal S/T organism. Since, if we are organic beings made of fractal space and time. And so our specific properties derive from the non-Euclidean geometry of 'vital space' (ch.7-9) and the evolutionary laws of 'cyclical time' with its 3 ages and common laws of extinction and survival that apply to any entity that exist in time (ch.5). 
I have also published a book, "The cycles of the economics and history" (nt.4), that explains the same concepts using the traditional jargons of history and economics, for those interested only in the modern world, its causes and future cycles.
We also insert cross-reference numbers to different paragraphs of the book to show the homology of all those laws and species.
Needless to say that this book is only a synthesized introduction to a subject, that underlies all realities. It acts, in fact, as a guide to different scientists from every discipline. So the reader might study in further detail the laws and species of his own science with the help of the generic Laws of organic Systems. 
In the second part of the book,we consider in much greater detail History as a system of energy and information whose fractal cycles of informative evolution follow an 800-72+-8  pattern. We determine with that pattern the cycles of economics and history. Written in 1994, it was the only book able to predict the 2001-2009 electronic crash parallel to the 1929-37 crash of the chemical cycle, according to the generational cycle of evolution of machines and energies: Steam Energy (age of england: 1784-1857),Chemical Energy (age of Germany, 1857-1929), Electric energ y(Age of America,1929-2001)
