chapter); and conversely it can even be a factor in erotic activation as already mentioned. However, in the generation of complex systems reduction in symmetry is integral to emergence. In a truly complex system no single aspect has adequate information to represent the whole, nor can any single part statistically predict the dynamic behavior of the system, especially when it self-organizes. Symmetry is broken in what are called phase transitions, rapid, abrupt reorganizations in a dynamic system that radically restructure the system, allowing new forms to emerge. 44 Bearing the psychological equivalent of phase transitions and reorganizations can be highly stressful for an individual even if ultimately positive in transformative effect. In the past half century spontaneous symmetry breaking has become recognized, not just as a disappointment to physicists seeking perfection, but also as a key to the existence of our cosmos. There are several extremely important spontaneous breaks in symmetry in the natural history of the world. The first has to due with the current model of the origins of our universe, the Big Bang discussed in chapter 1. As previously mentioned, once the initial explosion took place the universe appears to have expanded wholly randomly, i.e., no preferred direction; energy and matter were undifferentiated, in fact matter / antimatter pairs were in continuous creation/destruction. However, somewhere between 10 -35 and 10 -11 seconds after the Big Bang as the size of universe grew exponentially and the temperature fell there was a symmetry breaking phase transition in which matter came to predominate slightly over antimatter. This transition is the deep cause for why we live in a matter, rather than an antimatter universe (antimatter particles can be formed in the laboratory but are very short-lived due to joint annihilation when contact with matter is made; the matter/antimatter pairs are converted wholly into radiation). The second relevant cosmic symmetry break, at least for life on earth, comes from the chemical history of our planet. Many biomolecules, the chemicals of life, have a distinct asymmetry about them. These molecules can exist in right- and left-handed forms, but one of the pair is usually biologically active and the other is inert. The sepa- ( 64 ) Chapter 3
