"Oology Oology (or oölogy) is a branch of ornithology studying bird eggs, nests and breeding behaviour. The word is derived from the Greek ""oion"", meaning egg. Oology can also refer to the hobby of collecting wild birds' eggs, sometimes called egg collecting, birdnesting or egging, which is now illegal in many jurisdictions. Oology became increasingly popular in Britain and the United States during the 1800s. Observing birds from afar was difficult because high quality binoculars were not readily available. Thus it was often more practical to shoot the birds, or collect their eggs. While the collection of the eggs of"
"Ontology Ontology is the philosophical study of being. More broadly, it studies concepts that directly relate to being, in particular becoming, existence, reality, as well as the basic categories of being and their relations. Traditionally listed as a part of the major branch of philosophy known as metaphysics, ontology often deals with questions concerning what entities exist or may be said to exist and how such entities may be grouped, related within a hierarchy, and subdivided according to similarities and differences. The compound word ""ontology"" (""study of being"") combines ""onto-"" (Gr. ὄν, ""on"", gen. ὄντος, ""ontos"", ""being; that which is"")"
"Oneiromancy Oneiromancy (from the Greek όνειροϛ ""oneiros"", dream, and μαντεία ""manteia"", prophecy) is a form of divination based upon dreams; it is a system of dream interpretation that uses dreams to predict the future. Dreams occur throughout the Bible as omens or messages from God; In Acts 2:17, the apostle Peter quotes Joel 2:28, saying that because of the Spirit now out poured, ""...your old men will dream dreams."" Oneirocritic literature is the traditional (ancient and medieval) literary format of dream interpretation. The ancient sources of oneirocritic literature are Kemetian (Aegyptian), Akkadian (Babylonian), and Hellenic (Greek). The medieval sources of"
"Paul Tholey Tholey started the study of oneirology in an attempt to prove that dreams occur in color. Given the unreliability of dream memories and following the critical realism approach, he used lucid dreaming as an epistemological tool for investigating dreams, in a similar fashion to Stephen LaBerge. He devised the reflection technique for inducing lucid dreams, consisting in continuously suspecting waking life to be a dream, in the hope that such a habit would manifest itself during dreams. Paul Tholey's research included the examination of the cognitive abilities of dreamers, as well as the cognitive abilities of dream figures."
"Nephrology Nephrology (from Greek"" nephros"" ""kidney"", combined with the suffix ""-logy"", ""the study of"") is a specialty of medicine and pediatrics that concerns itself with the kidneys: the study of normal kidney function and kidney disease, the preservation of kidney health, and the treatment of kidney disease, from diet and medication to renal replacement therapy (dialysis and kidney transplantation).

"Ornithology Ornithology is a branch of zoology that concerns the study of birds. Several aspects of ornithology differ from related disciplines, due partly to the high visibility and the aesthetic appeal of birds. The science of ornithology has a long history and studies on birds have helped develop several key concepts in evolution, behaviour and ecology such as the definition of species, the process of speciation, instinct, learning, ecological niches, guilds, island biogeography, phylogeography, and conservation. While early ornithology was principally concerned with descriptions and distributions of species, ornithologists today seek answers to very specific questions, often using birds as"

"during psychosis. However, There is currently no known treatment for oneirophrenia. Oneirophrenia was studied in the 1950s by the neurologist and psychiatrist Ladislas J. Meduna (1896–1964), also known as the discoverer of one of the forms of shock therapy, using the drug metrazol. Although oneirophrenia was recognized as a specific condition in the 1950s, it was not studied in depth until the 1960s. During its beginning stages oneirophrenia was studied very closely with schizophrenia as an acute form due to the relationship between their symptoms. It wasn't until greater research that oneirophrenia became its own mental disease. Oneirophrenia Oneirophrenia (from"
"Oneirophrenia Oneirophrenia (from the Greek words ""ὄνειρος"" (""oneiros"", ""dream"") and ""φρήν"" (""phrēn"", ""mind"")) is a hallucinatory, dream-like state caused by several conditions such as prolonged sleep deprivation, sensory deprivation, or drugs (such as ibogaine). Oneirophrenia is often confused with an acute case of schizophrenia due to the onset of hallucinations. The severity of this condition can range from derealization to complete hallucinations and delusions. Oneirophrenia was described for the first time in the 1950s but was studied more in the 1960s. Although it is still cited in diagnostic manuals of psychiatry, such as DSM-IV and in the International Statistical Classification"
"Orismology Orismology is the study of the process and the products of definition, in practice, in praxis, and in theory. ""Orismology"" is particularly applicable to the analysis and the writing of stipulative, normative definitions that explain and delimit the use of technical terms. The word is constructed from the Greek: ""orismos"" (definition) and ""logos"" (word, reasoning, study).

"Oenology Oenology (enology; ) is the science and study of wine and winemaking; distinct from viticulture, the agricultural endeavours of vine-growing and of grape-harvesting. The English word oenology derives from the word oinos, ""wine"" (""οἶνος"") and the suffix –logia ""study of"" (""-λογία"") from the Ancient Greek language. An oenologist is an expert in the fields comprehended by the ""Viticulture and Oenology"" designation for oenology-training programmes and research centres that include schooling, training, and education in the outdoor and indoors aspects of wine and the making of wine. An increasing number of schools offer degree-granting programs in Oenology and Viticulture. Most"
"Dendrology Dendrology (, ""dendron"", ""tree""; and , ""-logia"", ""science of"" or ""study of"") or xylology (, ""ksulon"", ""wood"") is the science and study of wooded plants (trees, shrubs, and lianas), specifically, their taxonomic classifications. There is no sharp boundary between plant taxonomy and dendrology; however, woody plants not only belong to many different plant families, but these families may be made up of both woody and non-woody members. Some families include only a few woody species. Dendrology, as a discipline of industrial forestry, tends to focus on identification of economically useful woody plants and their taxonomic interrelationships. As an academic"
"Iridology Iridology (also known as iridodiagnosis or iridiagnosis) is an alternative medicine technique whose proponents claim that patterns, colors, and other characteristics of the iris can be examined to determine information about a patient's systemic health. Practitioners match their observations to ""iris charts,"" which divide the iris into zones that correspond to specific parts of the human body. Iridologists see the eyes as ""windows"" into the body's state of health. Iridologists claim they can use the charts to distinguish between healthy systems and organs in the body and those that are overactive, inflamed, or distressed. Iridologists claim this information demonstrates"
"Neurotology Neurotology or neuro-otology is a branch of clinical medicine which studies and treats neurological disorders of the ear. It is a subspecialty of otolaryngology-head and neck surgery, and is closely related to otology, and also draws on the fields of neurology and neurosurgery. Otology generally refers to the treatment of middle ear disease and resultant conductive hearing loss, whereas neurotology refers to treatment of inner ear conditions, or hearing and balance disorders. These specialists also work with audiologists and related sensory specialists. Neurotologists are physicians who have specialized in otolaryngology and then further specialized in neurological conditions of the"

"Soteriology Soteriology (; ' ""salvation"" from σωτήρ ' ""savior, preserver"" and λόγος """" ""study"" or ""word"") is the study of religious doctrines of salvation. Salvation theory occupies a place of special significance in many religions. In the academic field of religious studies, soteriology is understood by scholars as representing a key theme in a number of different religions and is often studied in a comparative context; that is, comparing various ideas about what salvation is and how it is obtained. Buddhism is devoted primarily to liberation from suffering, ignorance, and contaminated rebirth. The purpose of one's life is to break"

"Henology Henology (from Greek ἕν ""hen"", ""one"") refers to the philosophical account or discourse on ""The One"" that appears most notably in the philosophy of Plotinus. Reiner Schürmann describes it as a ""metaphysics of radical transcendence"" that extends beyond being and intellection. It can be contrasted with ontology, as ontology is ""an account of being"" whereas henology is an ""account of unity."" Henology stands in contradistinction to several other philosophical disciplines. The term ""henology"" refers to the discipline that centers around The One, as in the philosophies of Plato and Plotinus. It is sometimes used in contradistinction to disciplines that"

"Sonology Sonology is a neologism used to describe the study of sound in a variety of disciplines. In medicine, the term is used in the field of [imaging] to describe the practice of medical ultrasonography. According to some scholars, sonology may represent a more advanced application of clinical sonography, chiefly due to the requirement for the use of critical application of both cognitive and radiographic skills in making the diagnostic determination at the time of bedside application of focused ultrasound. The term is also used to describe interdisciplinary research in the field of electronic music and computer music, drawing upon"
"Andrology Andrology (from , ""anēr"", genitive , ""andros"", ""man""; and , ""-logia"") is the medical specialty that deals with male health, particularly relating to the problems of the male reproductive system and urological problems that are unique to men. It is the counterpart to gynaecology, which deals with medical issues which are specific to female health, especially reproductive and urologic health. Andrology covers anomalies in the connective tissues pertaining to the genitalia, as well as changes in the volume of cells, such as in genital hypertrophy or macrogenitosomia. From reproductive and urologic viewpoints, male-specific medical and surgical procedures include vasectomy,"
"Afrology Afrology is a scientific study of the organization of the contemporary social structures of Africa. It places in the heart of African social change the notion of ""identity"". Afrology is a way of thinking about the various forms of social, institutional and personal identification.

"Oneirophobia Oneirophobia (from Greek όνειρο (oneiro), meaning ""dream"", and φόβος (phobos), meaning ""fear"") is the fear of dreams. It is discussed in ""The Dream Frontier"", a book by Mark Blechner, a neuro-psychoanalyst at the William Alanson White Institute. The fear involves suffering due to experiences with frightening dreams (nightmares) or by negative events in the life affecting dreams. Some sufferers try to avoid falling asleep. Those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, often re-experience their trauma in nightmares, so frequently that they attempt to avoid these painful symptoms through alcohol or other drugs. Sleep itself is feared for its"
"Dream A dream is a succession of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that usually occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. The content and purpose of dreams are not fully understood, although they have been a topic of scientific, philosophical and religious interest throughout recorded history. Dream interpretation is the attempt at drawing meaning from dreams and searching for an underlying message. The scientific study of dreams is called oneirology.
