“No man is an island- he is a holon. A Janus-faced entity who, looking inward, sees himself as a self-contained unique whole, looking outward as a dependent part. His self-assertive tendency is the dynamic manifestation of his unique wholeness, his autonomy and independence as a holon. Its equally universal antagonist, the integrative tendency, expresses his dependence on the larger whole to which he belongs: his 'part-ness.'.” MenSelfWholeUniqueUniversalIndependenceTendenciesManifestationIslandsDependentEntityInwardWholenessDependenceAutonomyAssertiveAntagonistSelf ContainedJanus Author:Arthur Koestler
