The allure of a unified scientific framework, built upon the bedrock of [[reductionism]], falters when confronted with the intractable [[Complexity|complexities]] of [[Nonlinear system|non-linear systems]]. While the reductionist ideal promises to dissect reality into its fundamental components, revealing the underlying unity of logic, math, physics, chemistry, and biology, it stumbles against the phenomenon of [[emergence]]. Here, properties arise from intricate interactions, defying simple decomposition and rendering the "whole" demonstrably more than the sum of its parts. This exposes a critical deficiency: reductionism, while powerful, cannot fully account for the emergent behaviors that define much of the natural world. Equally insufficient is [[Holism|wholism]], which, while acknowledging the significance of the whole, provides no concrete mechanisms for understanding its genesis. Consequently, the pursuit of a singular "theory of everything" risks oversimplification, demanding instead a more nuanced approach that acknowledges the inherent limitations of both reductionism and wholism, and embraces the insights offered by complexity science to navigate the intricate tapestry of reality.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Kesić |first1=Srdjan |date=27 June 2015 |title=Systems biology, emergence and antireductionism |url=https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4992115/ |website=Saudi Journal of Biological Sciences |language=en |doi=10.1016/j.
