In his seminal 1972 paper More is Different, Philip Anderson employed the correspondence between the symmetries of space-time and the conservation laws of physics to state an elegant concept of emergence. In this account we explore some of the notions put forward by Anderson. We show, through the use of examples, how macroscopic symmetry breaking is an important factor in the formation of system-level order from chemical reactions through to the organization of
