The Universal Principle of Biology: Determinism, Quantum Physics and Spontaneity
Attila Grandpierre,Deepak Chopra and Menas C. Kafatos
Abstract
For the last four centuries, physics became the pre-eminent natural science. Now it is widely believed that biology will
replace physics in prominence. However, systematic efforts to develop a science of theoretical biology on a par with
modern theoretical physics in depth and explanatory power have failed. In this paper, we introduce the most
promising effort to achieve a fundamental theory of biology, the framework of Ervin Bauer, which includes three
requirements for life
Keywords
theoretical biology, exact biology, action principle, spontaneity, quantum physics, indeterminism
