Michael Worton, vice-provost of University College London, notes that an explicit commitment to ¡°interdisciplinarity¡± will help undergraduates studying its new bachelor¡¯s of arts and sciences ¡°explore complexity¡± (¡°Big picture from all angles¡±, Opinion, 21 February). But given the considerable differences of content, jargon and skills found in, say, mathematics, French and history, how will the ¡°new ways of thinking¡±, which were not previously available, be transmitted to students in the not-too-distant future?
