Domain Lenses

Every analysis convenes the full table by default. Domain lenses let you adjust the emphasis without losing any perspective.

Default
  • General

    Full multi-disciplinary treatment. Every discipline weighted by relevance to the topic.

The key principle

Every lens still shows you every perspective. A scientist using the Scientific lens still sees the philosophical arguments and the historical precedents. A philosopher using the Philosophical lens still sees the empirical data. Lenses shape emphasis, not exclusion.
