behavior

holistic conception of Behavior, rather than a
static, atomistic entity

Complexity of Unique Asset

17 into 1/3, or

17 into 1/9
 Three sons started to argue and fight

man

14.
A different Maths can Improve
Performance of Vision
 The wise man read the Will
patiently. After
giving some thoughts, he added one camel of his
own to the seventeen camels.
 So there are eighteen camels.
 He read the Will
aloud.
1/2 of 18 = 9, so first son gets 9 camels;
1/3 of 18 = 6, so second son gets 6 camels;
1/9 of 18 = 2, so last son gets 2 camels.
 9 + 6 + 2 = 17, which leaves one camel, that the
wise man took back!
