Lamarck, highlights the pressing requirement for an alternative synthesis to that of Princeton (1947). This novel synthesis seamlessly integrates the scientific models of self-organization that emerged during the second half of the 20th century, grounded in the laws of physics, thermodynamics, and mathematics, with the emerging evolutionary problematics, such as self-organized memory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive book delves into the integration of self-organization within modern evolutionary biology. It is structured into two parts:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first part focuses on contemporary observations in paleontology and biology, featuring prominent theoreticians of self-organization, including dArcy Thompson, Henri Bergson, René Thom, and Ilya Prigogine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe second part presents diverse emergent evolutionary models, encompassing the sciences of complexity, non-linear dynamical systems, fractals, attractors, epigenesis, systematics, and mesology. These models are accompanied by various examples of the sciences of complexity and self-organization observed in the human lineage, from both internal (embryogenesis-morphogenesis) and external (mesology) perspectives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy undertaking this epistemological synthesis, the book offers a profound exploration of the interplay between self-organization and evolution, shedding light on the intricate mechanisms that drive the complexity and diversity of life on Earth. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, scholars, and enthusiasts alike, contributing to our understanding of the intricate tapestry of life's history and development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 764g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031047824\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103268172026,"sku":"9783031047824","price":133.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_be04d187-2131-4115-a1ce-f649795fe6c0.jpg?v=1669970161","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/selforganization-as-a-new-paradigm-in-evolutionary-biology-from-theory-to-applied-cases-in-the-tree-of-life-9783031047824","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
