Roughly speaking, there are two paradigms of science:

Reductionism and Holism.

Reductionism considers that breaking down any system into its constituent parts is the best way to understand it fully.

In this paradigm, all systems can be fully reasoned only with reference to their elementary parts. The whole is just the sum of the parts.

Holism understands something in reference to the ecosystem it belongs to and the relationships between its constituent parts. To a holist, the whole is more than just the sum of the parts.

While Reductionism doesn't care about the relationships between the interconnected parts within a system, Holism uses those as the core reference for its analysis.

Why does this matter?
