must cover all the fundamental aspects of the unity of organisms” (Whyte
1965, p. 6). The recognition, as well as the appreciation of the place of these
conditions - or subsystems, as they would be in Miller's living systems
theory - within the hierarchical construction that comprises plant life on
Earth, provides a realistic and holistic way of perceiving and responding to
what our senses tell us, both directly and intuitively, about plant life.
