To describe science as "multifaceted" implies that its
study involves many different fields of research and an ample diversity of disciplines
that come together to produce valuable data and much-needed
results.
Science is multidisciplinary, among many other
diverse descriptors. An example of this quality is the scientific study of human
psychiatry. This field alone requires the intervention of a number of other branches of
inquiry to include neurology, psychology (which is a social science), physiology, and
even sociology, to be able to address all that encompasses human behavior. This includes
its normal functioning, its effect in the human body, and its conflicts with social
expectations.
Other fields that share the characteristic of
being multifaceted include pedagogy (teaching), sociology (the study of communities and
human activity withina community), and mathematics. In all three of these fields there
is a requirement for schema in many other areas of study that will make facts and
concepts connected. In order to be good mathematicians one must have good inductive,
deductive, chronological, and computational skills. In the field of pedagogy, all the
fields must come together and be connected to be taught in a relevant
way.
Therefore,describing something as "multifaceted" is
the same as saying that it is multidimensional, varied, inclusive, and
multidisciplinary, among other things.
