Equally the origin of the genetic information and the intertwined nature of ‘.hardware.’ and ‘.software.’ involved in the evolution of bio-molecules and the cells are shrouded in mystery. This treatise aims at exploring individual and swarm behaviour patterns which potentially hint at as yet unknown biological principles. It reviews theories of evolution with perspectives from the earth sciences, commencing with the earliest observed records of life. This is followed by reviews and discussion of the building blocks of life, marine and terrestrial communities, the arthropods, birds and finally humans. It is suggested that, further to the mutation/natural selection processes established by Darwin and Wallace, an understanding of the evolution of intelligence remains little understood. A directionality of evolutionary trajectories is evident, not least the purposeful thinking process of humans as well as animals. It is not clear how directional intelligence, man | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Origin of life; Evolution; Emergence of Intelligence; Origin of complexity in nature; Origin of the Bios | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-10603-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-10603-4 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
