Book Description
Le hasard, le calcul et la vie regroupe seize communications originales du colloque du même nom, organisé dans le cadre du Centre Culturel International de Cerisy en 2019. Des mathématiques aux sciences humaines, en passant par la biologie, nombreux sont les concepts et interrogations liés au hasard. Quels sont les différents types de hasard ? Le hasard correspond-il à une absence de connaissances des causes des évènements ou existe-t-il un hasard réellement intrinsèque et irréductible ? Le hasard préside-t-il à nos décisions ? Gouverne-t-il l’évolution ? Est-il à l’origine de la vie ? Quelles sont les parts respectives du hasard et de la nécessité en biologie ? Cet ouvrage cherche à répondre à ces questions fondamentales en réunissant les contributions claires et richement documentées de mathématiciens, physiciens, biologistes et philosophes qui font de cet ouvrage un outil de travail et de réflexion incomparable.

Chance, Calculation and Life
Author: Thierry Gaudin
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 111982396X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Chance, Calculation and Life brings together 16 original papers from the colloquium of the same name, organized by the International Cultural Center of Cerisy in 2019. From mathematics to the humanities and biology, there are many concepts and questions related to chance. What are the different types of chance? Does chance correspond to a lack of knowledge about the causes of events, or is there a truly intrinsic and irreducible chance? Does chance preside over our decisions? Does it govern evolution? Is it at the origin of life? What part do chance and necessity play in biology? This book answers these fundamental questions by bringing together the clear and richly documented contributions of mathematicians, physicists, biologists and philosophers who make this book an incomparable tool for work and reflection.

Self-Organization as a New Paradigm in Evolutionary Biology
Author: Anne Dambricourt Malassé
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031047834
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
The epistemological synthesis of the various theories of evolution, since the first formulation in 1802 with the transmission of the inherited characters by J.B. Lamarck, shows the need for an alternative synthesis to that of Princeton (1947). This new synthesis integrates the scientific models of self-organization developed during the second half of the 20th century based on the laws of physics, thermodynamics, and mathematics with the emergent evolutionary problematics such as self-organized memory. This book shows, how self-organization is integrated in modern evolutionary biology. It is divided in two parts: The first part pays attention to the modern observations in paleontology and biology, which include major theoreticians of the self-organization (d’Arcy Thompson, Henri Bergson, René Thom, Ilya Prigogine). The second part presents different emergent evolutionary models including the sciences of complexity, the non-linear dynamical systems, fractals, attractors, epigenesis, systemics, and mesology with different examples of the sciences of complexity and self-organization as observed in the human lineage, from both internal (embryogenesis-morphogenesis) and external (mesology) viewpoints.

Figures of Chance I
Author: Anne Duprat
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1003828809
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 457
Book Description
Figures of Chance I: Chance in Literature and the Arts (16th–21st Centuries) proposes a transhistorical analysis that will serve as a reference work on the evolution of literary and artistic representations of chance and contingency. Alongside its multidisciplinary companion volume (Figures of Chance II), it considers how the projective and predictive capacity of societies is shaped by representations and cultural models of a reality that is understood, to varying degrees, to be contingent, unpredictable, or chaotic. Giving special emphasis to the French context while also developing broad cross-cultural comparisons, this volume examines the dialogue between evolving conceptions and changing representations of chance, from Renaissance figures of Fortune to the data-driven world of the present. Written by recognized specialists of each of the periods studied, it identifies and historicizes the main fictional and factual modes of portraying, narrating, and comprehending chance in the West.
