520 |a Our inherited concepts of the world of mechanics -- the clock-work universe -- are giving way, and the vision of a "web world" is taking its place. Interdependence is now seen as central to understanding organization and change at all levels, from chemical networks and living cells to ecosystems, cities, and economies. The author describes the already visible signs of an emerging integral culture, which has the potential to build a more sustainable and peaceful civilization. Yet, Goerner warns, our present social and economic systems are becoming unstable, and if we do not integrate the core lessons of the web world into our ways of life, we face the specter of collapse
