Concept: Now You See It, Now You Don't, Nature
 









Excerpts: On one level, cells are indivisible things; on another they dissolve
into a frenzied, self-organizing dance of smaller components. (...)  The
validity of cell doctrine depends on the scale at which the body is observed. To
limit ourselves to the perspective of this model may mean that explications of
some bodily phenomena remain outside the capacity of modern biology. It is
perhaps time to dethrone the doctrine of the cell, to allow alternative models
of the body for study and exploitation in this new, post-modern era of
biological investigation.
