Dennett I 308 Local/Global/Self-organization/Technology/Kauffman: Local rules create global order. >Rules, >Order, >Laws, >Laws of nature. Dennett: mankind's technology is not governed by this principle. For example, pyramids are organized from top to bottom, but the y.ilding activity is of course from bottom to top. >Technology. Until the evolution of rational human technology, the rules run from local to global, then the direction is reversed. >Evolution, >Progress._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
