mereology: parts and wholes  

Definición

  • The relationship of part to whole is familiar and universal. Like the relationship between a house and its front door, an elephant and its trunk, and Beethoven's Eroica and its first chord, we find part-whole relations all around and grasp the notion intuitively from infancy.
