Formation of Subjects
I am little bit confused about the formation of subjects, specialy to understand how to recognise - wheather it is a Compound subject, Complex subject, Primary basic Subject, or Basic subject. If any suggestions/discussion about the topic will occur with small examples, then it really helpful for me.
Thanking you,
Regards.

A basic subject is an organised or systemised body of ideas, whose extension & intension are likely to fall coherently within the field of interest & comfortably within the intellectual competence & the field of inevitable specialisation of a normal person. Eg: Physics, Medicine, Religion, Law.
Compound subject consists of a basic subject & one or more isolate ideas as components(PMEST).
Eg: Lung cancer Where Medicine is the basic subject, Lung is the personality isolate & Cancer is the Matter property isolate, ie., Medicine, Lung; Cancer is the subject string.
Complex subject is a subject formed by coupling two or more subjects expounding, or on the basis of, some relation betweeen them. Eg: Mathematics for Physicists, Difference between Physics & Chemistry, Geo-politics - -that is, influence of Geography on Political formation. The relations between the subjects re called as Phase Relations - - -General relation, Comparision, Influencing, Bias, Difference. etc.
Modes of Formation of Subjects:
* Dissection:is cutting a universe of entities int parts of coordinate status, even as we cut bread into slices. . Botany, Agriculture, Zoology are a few consequtive laminae of the dissected universe ofsubjects
* Lamination:is construction by overlaying facet on facet, even as we make a sandwich by laying a vegetable layer over a layer of bread. This results in Compound subjects, Cancer of Lung.
* Denudation: is the progressive decrease of extension & the increase of the intension( or the depth) An example of denudation of the Universe of basic Subjects is:
Philosophy.> Logic > Deductive logic
Asia > India > West Bengal.
* Loose Assemblage: is assembling together of two or more of Subjects(Basic or Compound), Isolates ideas and results in a Phase relation / Complex subject.
Other modes of formation include Distillation of kind 1 and 2.
