Cosmos y Gea
Starting with the study of a series of enigmas located at the boundary between life and matter, the author offers us a revolutionary vision of physics and biology.
What is matter? When and how did life begin? How were the continents, the oceans and the atmosphere formed? What were the factors that determined the evolutionary spread of animal and vegetable species? What were the causes of the great catastrophic extinctions registered by geological history? Why is it impossible to find the remains of any ancestral species? Where does man come from? What is the relationship between the faraway Cosmos and life on Earth? These questions are reformulated from a new perspective, thus establishing the basis for a theory of evolution.
This book is a tribute to three great European geniuses of the life sciences: Johann W, Goethe, Vladimir Vernadsky and James Lovelock.
