Below is an historical depiction of the hierarchy of major physical theories, starting with the naive epistemology of prehistoric hominids and ending with the most recent (provisional) theories, which it is hoped, will provide a 'Theory Of Everything'

CAVE MAN (Mythology and Naive Epistemology)
ENLIGHTENMENT (Classical Physics)
THERMODYNAMICS	ELECTROMAGNETISM

QUANTUM MECHANICS	SPECIAL RELATIVITY + GRAVITY = GENERAL RELATIVITY
Quantum Mechanics + Special Relativity = Quantum Field Theory
ELECTROWEAK THEORY
GRAND UNIFIED THEORY
SUPERSYMMETRY
STRING THEORY('M'Theory)
THEORY OF EVERYTHING?
