Context triple: [Manfred Eigen, hasPublication, The Hypercycle: A Principle of Natural Self-Organization]
  • A. The Origins of Order: Self-Organization and Selection in Evolution
    The Origins of Order: Self-Organization and Selection in Evolution is a landmark book by Stuart Kauffman that explores how self-organization and complex systems theory contribute to the emergence of biological order alongside natural selection.
  • B. At Home in the Universe: The Search for the Laws of Self-Organization and Complexity
    "At Home in the Universe: The Search for the Laws of Self-Organization and Complexity" is a popular science book by Stuart Kauffman that explores how principles of self-organization and complexity can explain the emergence of order and life in the universe.
  • C. Haldane–Oparin hypothesis of the origin of life
    The Haldane–Oparin hypothesis of the origin of life proposes that life first arose through a gradual chemical evolution of organic molecules in Earth’s early “primordial soup,” eventually leading to self-replicating systems.
  • D. On the Physical Basis of Life
    "On the Physical Basis of Life" is a seminal 19th-century essay by biologist Thomas Henry Huxley that argues for a materialistic, scientific explanation of life processes.
  • E. The Origin of Life
    The Origin of Life is a seminal 1967 scientific work by John Desmond Bernal that explores hypotheses on how life first emerged from non-living matter on Earth.
  • F. None of above. chosen
