The evolutionary process allowed to go from a hostile, hot and nearly uniform universe to another highly hospitable, cold, complex and finely structured at very diverse scales world, capable to develop variety, quasi-static structures out of equilibrium (thanks to the anti-entropic tendency of

Cosmochemical Evolution and the Origin of Life on Earthfically, in this paper, we will focus our attention on the origin and evolution of life and we will briefly cover the pertinent physical and chemical aspects of cosmic evolution which were responsible for the formation of the main biogenic elements in stars, which aside from H include C, N, O, S and

Darwinian Dynamics and Biogenesisow is it arranged? (formal factor); and what is it for (final factor). These “causes” can obviously be applied to artefacts, but not to natural physical things or processes. Living things, however, are natural objects which also seem to have design and directionality, are “adapted” and endowed with

Evolution of Adaptive Systemson.. First, I’ll describe the evolutionary dynamics in three abstract spaces. This will led us to distinguish replicator versus interactor concepts and codical versus material domains. This will allow us too to introduce the problem of the units of selection and the concept of organism from an evolu
