TSU New Approach (Thinking)THE COMPLEX WHOLE

“The past three centuries of science have been predominantly reductionist, attempting to break complex systems into simple parts, and those parts, in turn, into simpler parts. The reductionist program has been successful, and will continue to be so. But it has often left a vacuum: How do we use the information gleaned about the parts to build up a theory of the whole? The deep difficulty here lies in the fact that the complex whole may exhibit properties that are not readily explained by understanding the parts. The complex whole, in a completely nonmystical sense, can often exhibit collective properties, ‘emergent’ features that are lawful in their own right.”

Stuart Kauffman - At Home in the Universe, 1994

TSU New Thinking

Today’s Challenge in Engineering Education

“The need to create sound synthesis and systemization of knowledge … will call

out a kind of scientific genius which hitherto has existed only as an aberration: the genius for integration. Of necessity this means specialization as all creative effort goes, but this time the [person] will be specializing in the construction of the whole.”

Jose Ortega y Gasset - Mission of the University (1930) (from)
