Hi TOK List,

  I just wanted to let everyone know I found yet another articulation of knowledge that shares the basic ToK System onto-epistemological  architecture. This was E. F. Schumacher's A Guide for the Perplexed.
Here is the pdf and I just spend last 30<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.gornahoor.net_library_Schumacher-5FEF-5FA-5FGuide-5Ffor-5Fthe-5FPerplexed.pdf&d=DwMFaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=wjF8cZoiFchamTuxBdDEmw&m=ICF7iR5bmL9iYlu10fF1xXF8E2edWVR7c5hwsLAUUKU&s=iddz8dsP3fB1TsiW98Qy1604U2Tc3bDYCMGFISyrvF4&e=> min or so going through. Here is the Wiki Entry, from which here is how it describes the four "levels of being"<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Guide_for_the_Perplexed>:
*         "Mineral" = m
*         "Plant" = m + x
*         "Animal" = m + x + y
*         "Human" = m + x + y + z

Of course, this lines up:

  *   Energy/Matter
  *   Energy/Matter + Gene/Cell/Evolve (Life)
  *   Energy/Matter + Gene/Cell/Evolve (Life)  + Neuronal Net/Brain-Animal/Learn (Mind)
  *   Energy/Matter + Gene/Cell/Evolve (Life) + Neuronal Net/Brain-Animal/Learn (Mind) + Language/Person/Justify (Culture)

Just thought I would share.

Best,
Gregg
