I 9
Science/coincidence/Kauffman: science has reduced us to beings who owe their existence to coincidence. KauffmanVs: this is incomplete.
>Life/Kauffman, >Science, >Evolution, >Beginning.
I 282
Coincidence/Kauffman: There is an inevitability of historical coincidence. The periodic table is clear, but at the level of chemistry, the space of possible molecules is larger than the number of atoms in the universe. Life is thus the product of a historical coincidence.
I 286
Evolution/Life/Self-organisation/Coincidence/Necessity/Kauffman: we are not just pieced up handicrafts, not just molecular ad hoc apparatuses. KauffmanVsGould, KauffmanVsMonod, KauffmanVsJacob, KauffmanVsBricolage.
>St. J. Gould, >J. Monod, >F. Jacob, >Bricolage.
We are children of necessity. At home in the universe.
