What results is a complex whole: "Ultimately our moral sense or conscience becomes a highly complex sentiment originating in the social instincts, largely guided by the approbation of our fellow-men, ruled by reason, self-interest, and in later times by deep religious feelings, and confirmed by instruction and habit" (p. 157).
A simple sentence, such as "Theaetetus sits"., though simple as a sentence, is still a complex whole consisting of words of different kinds a name (onoma) and a verb (rhema)—having different functions.
His policy, Ms. Dossi writes, was to amass "a complex whole, which was also to feature the work of the great masters when and if the rank of work on the art market and the asking price for it met his exacting standards".
(PL, §64/ WLM, 77-8) {§5.6} judgement is the differentiation of a complex whole, and hence always is analysis and synthesis in one.
Nonetheless, attempts have been made even in such cases to show how the intrinsic value of a complex whole is to be computed in a nonsummative way in terms of the basic intrinsic values of simpler states, thus preserving the idea that basic intrinsic value is the key to the computation of all intrinsic value (Quinn 1974, Chisholm 1975, Oldfield 1977, Carlson 1997).
A story about human origins is a relatively complex whole, including a number of beliefs.
Since drought stress response is a complex biological process, whole genome transcriptome analysis was performed to obtain a deeper understanding of the drought response in soybean.
Yes, there are some extended and fascinating reflections here on the difficulties of translating poetry -- and few poems are as difficult to comprehend, let alone translate, as the "Duino Elegies," Rilke's great masterwork and the focus of Gass's energies here -- but that's just one part of a complex whole.
If one were to take population as the point of departure, it would be a very vague notion of a complex whole and through closer definition one would arrive analytically at increasingly simple concepts; from imaginary concrete terms one would move to more and more tenuous abstractions until one reached the simplest definitions.
Although the etiology is not fully understood, MS is a complex genetic disorder and whole genome studies indicate that the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6p21 represents the strongest genome-wide MS susceptibility locus [1], [2].
