2.4 Continuous v non-continuous; causal v non-causal; local v non-local; particle v wave; symmetry and antisymmetry. 17

2.5 Spatiotemporal v non-spatiotemporal; reality v belief and imagination; explicit v implicit; objective v subjective; measurable v immeasurable. Frog's eye view of dimension v bird's eye view using the Argand diagram. The Implicate Order. 20

2.6 The Central limit theorem and the normal (Gaussian) distribution; difference and similarity sequences; symmetry and asymmetry. 23
