Methinks thou dost overgeneralize
and art over-bold in thy predictions
Koestler, Wilber, Raven, and Hock all talk of more organic "chaordic or
holarchical " structures which are more applicable to the natural kingdom
than the "hierarchical" systems which humans have developed from regal and
military models, and which arguably exist only in the "Kingdom of the Human
Experience"
