Descrizione

In the systemic view different objects are identified through their second level (or emergent) properties. A system able to sustain and preserve such properties can be said «healthy», whilst «illness» will be the consequence of the exclusion of a part from the systemic interactions. Health and illness are part of the process through which human beings construct their identity in their life time.
