Internet and Nervous System

The significance of Communication differs in Atomist and Organicist concepts of Society.  In the former, Communication is an inessential addition to a self-contained entity.  In the latter, it is a mode of internal integrity.  Accordingly, in the case of the former, the development of a new Means of Communication is an extrinsic event, while in the case of the latter, it is a modification, for survival or evolutionary purposes, of some given integrative processes.  Thus, for example, for the Atomist, the Internet is leisure-time entertainment, while for the Organicist, it is an improvement in the nervous system of the species.
