atomismo

Generally, the view that the whole is nothing more than the sum of its parts. Physically, the view that the universe is composed of independent, self-sufficient atoms (nothing more), and that a complete description of the universe might be given by specifying the location and movements of all the atoms composing it. This view may also be put in phenomenalist terms (David Hume) or in logical terms (see extensional).
