The EOLSS body of knowledge is an integrated compendium of TWENTY ONE component encyclopedias, and is being augmented and updated monthly. The EOLSS attempts to forge pathways between disciplines in order to show their interdependence and help foster the transdisciplinary aspects of the relationship between nature and human society (the anthroposphere). It deals in detail with interdisciplinary subjects, but it is also disciplinary as each major core subject is presented in great depth, by world experts.
