The problem of understanding causally non-modular systems has received some attention in the demonstrate that design by selection can lead to such non-modular complex behavior. change in one subtask constituting a part of the marker-behavior affects also the functioning possibly ourselves, with behaviors which are functionally non-decomposable and constituted by a ./cache/work_jnnegfhofvcx3g56x5umiblrk4.pdf ./txt/work_jnnegfhofvcx3g56x5umiblrk4.txt
