Science - Philosophy / ciencias sociales, literatura, arte
English term or phrase: knit together
The research undertaken in this third volume picks up the thread at the point which the mourning work on the subject of the impossible metaphysics of One has come to its end. Its starting point is the supposition that the cause of Life has not been in safe hands with either traditional religions or with the metaphysician. If it is indeed true, we would not need to have an entire rethink about the relationship between Knowledge and Life. Philosophy, both as a way of thought and as a way of life in the former Europe, is thoroughly exhausted; biosophy has scarcely begun; the theory of the atmosphere is only just beginning to knit together and this is in a laborious way; the general theory of immune systems is in its infancy.

Explanation:
Aunque también se puede hacer un juego de palabras, ya que "thread" aparece en la primera línea. Entonces "thread" como hilo (del asunto) y luego "knit" como tejerse junta...
