A batch of the best highlights from what Claudia's read, .
A slime mold has a dual nature and provides a striking metaphor for the dual or multiple descriptions of nature. On the one hand, since the colony is composed of independent individuals, its description should be close to a causal, reductionist one. On the other, it is a single, cohesive body which demands a holistic, global description. The slime mold therefore shows how collectivity and individuality, holistic and reductionist aspects can exist within the same system.
