"Holism" Definition

noun

A holistic investigation or system of treatment.
The theory that living matter or reality is made up of organic or unified wholes that are greater than the simple sum of their parts.
A theory that the universe and especially living nature is correctly seen in terms of interacting wholes (as of living organisms) that are more than the mere sum of elementary particles.
A study or method of treatment.
The theory that parts of a whole are in intimate interconnection, such that they cannot exist independently of the whole, or cannot be understood without reference to the whole, which is thus regarded as greater than the sum of its parts. Holism is often applied to mental states, language, and ecology.
