Verifiable passages include: \"It is the thesis of this book that the study of emergence is closely tied to the ability to specify a large, complicated domain via a small set of 'laws'.\" (p. 123). Another: systems where \"more comes out than was put in\" (p. 225). Early statement: emergence occurs \"in rule-governed\" domains (p. 8). Holland notes hierarchies in systems like molecules and organelles, and states that phenomena are \"constrained by the laws of physics\" rather than strictly reducible (p. 240 context in reviews).","status":"active","vx_hash":"88609a9e1ebcbc1c870323a3c8102f4e66edae8d3b2fb8408f18c8f1876f2630","semantic_hash":null,"version_hash":null,"version":1,"sources":[],"falsifiers":[],"tier":null,"backed":null,"transcludes":null,"chain_head":"43b7ccc61d05563a030d2bf71036900847199001c630110b89fc87b31b585041","chain_length":1,"chain":[{"n":1,"op":"genesis","ts":"2026-07-17T02:37:13.689Z","actor":"owner","text_sha":"c6616877ad942cc4bf93c697158899847d9214943fbc4c19f1de8cf094f13353","detail":{"divided_from":"body","block":6,"kind":"p"},"prev":"genesis","hash":"43b7ccc61d05563a030d2bf71036900847199001c630110b89fc87b31b585041"}],"claim_ids":[],"last_op":{"op":"genesis","actor":"owner","ts":"2026-07-17T02:37:13.689Z"},"consolidated_into":null,"stable_url":"https://miscsubjects.com/i/div/paper-holland-j-h-1998-emergence-from-chaos-to-order/d6"},{"id":"d7","kind":"h","type":null,"order":7,"text":"## Convergence Patterns Touched","status":"active","vx_hash":"cec1ca638a5291e89aaba4366cef5de7a464029c5a8c10abc52f0adfdfaba727","semantic_hash":null,"version_hash":null,"version":1,"sources":[],"falsifiers":[],"tier":null,"backed":null,"transcludes":null,"chain_head":"93038eaf4e4cf6face2a1d579ee008c744feb6c69c6b8b1de0221498b0a464cc","chain_length":1,"chain":[{"n":1,"op":"genesis","ts":"2026-07-17T02:37:13.689Z","actor":"owner","text_sha":"c040442b1ae58466805c490f8bb2139096d1511099409e7b648556e23aa7613b","detail":{"divided_from":"body","block":7,"kind":"h"},"prev":"genesis","hash":"93038eaf4e4cf6face2a1d579ee008c744feb6c69c6b8b1de0221498b0a464cc"}],"claim_ids":[],"last_op":{"op":"genesis","actor":"owner","ts":"2026-07-17T02:37:13.689Z"},"consolidated_into":null,"stable_url":"https://miscsubjects.com/i/div/paper-holland-j-h-1998-emergence-from-chaos-to-order/d7"},{"id":"d8","kind":"p","type":null,"order":8,"text":"The work evidences branching flow networks in ant bridges and leaf-boats.
