Biogen: A Speculation on the Origin and Nature of Life (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fundamental question of life, exploring its origin, nature, and purpose. The author engages in a thought-provoking dialogue with the prevailing scientific and philosophical theories of the time, particularly those that attempt to explain life through purely material forces. He challenges the idea that life arises solely from the complex arrangement of matter, arguing that a vital principle, or "Biogen," must be invoked to account for the presence of life. Drawing inspiration from the ancient concept of a "soul," the author argues that this vital principle is a force that exists independently of matter and animates it, imbuing it with life. He goes on to suggest that this vital force is intimately connected to the human soul, or "spirit," a concept often dismissed by contemporary scientific thought. Ultimately, the author invites readers to consider the limitations of reason in grappling with the mystery of life and to embrace a worldview that recognizes the existence of a spiritual dimension beyond the material realm. Through its insightful exploration of these timeless questions, the book offers a compelling perspective on the nature of existence and the human condition.
