There has been no mechanistic explanation for evolutionary change
consistent with phylogeny in the 150 years since the publication of
‘Origins’. As a result, progress in the field of evolutionary biology
has stagnated, relying on descriptive observations and genetic
associations rather testable scientific measures.
This book
illuminates the need for a larger evolutionary-based platform for
biology. Like physics and chemistry, biology needs a central theory in
order to frame the questions that arise, the way hypotheses are tested,
and how to interpret the data in the context of a continuum.The
reduction of biology to its self-referential, self-organized properties
provides the opportunity to recognize the continuum from the
Singularity/Big Bang to Consciousness based on cell-cell communication
for homeostasis.
