Anatomy of anatomy

Salk's Anatomy of Reality would serve as a detailed introduction to systems theory as it was presented in its fundamental form. He explains to us that "The most fundamental phenomenon in the universe is relationship." This in itself can be perplexing to many a reader, especialy those who have learned to see the world existing as separate objects which appear to him to compete with eachother. Salk tells us that there are no independant objects, instead "We must consider al events in terms of process." This process leads to integration and that in turn leads to wholeness. However the wholeness has properties that the constituent parts do not have. Salk goes further than, say, General Systems Theory, which has the same fundamental claims, in that he ascribes a fundamental importance to the binary process, revealing to us that all processes are a binary process integrated by relationships between the elements. This suggests that there is a fundamental process of existence, and if realized will constitute a principle or framework similar to the scientific theory of everything, but different in that Salks approach is not a particularized perspective.
