Reductionism

Notes

According to reductionism, many of life's properties, can be understood, explained, or better viewed as when we distill it to it's core. For example, questions about meaning and happiness seems too big to tackle, but perhaps a good enough explanation for our reasons for action could be explained through the lens of Utility, to reduce the question of happiness to a simple pain/pleasure framework.

Rather than believe that truth is an emergent property, it means to believe that it is in the details. That to simplify problems into small manageable units is not only better it's also more correct Solve the easier problem
