"This map was constructed by sorting roughly 800,000 published papers into 776 different scientific paradigms (shown as pale circular nodes) based on how often the papers were cited together by authors of other papers".
From here. Just see the new branches of the tree of knowledge expanding... Very interesting and quite a beautiful work of art!

Probably vice versa. Statistical modeling/linear programming to solve problems with large numbers of variables is really taking off, so I suspect that the social sciences are beginning to mine & analyze their databases in a rigorous way.
