Continuous Creation: A Biological Concept of the Nature of Matter

Affirming the reality of spirit, here is a scientific model of the world showing spirit & life are as real as the material universe. These refreshing scientific viewpoints compel us to see that life & spirit are not transient phenomena of matter, but real in themselves. Until now, we did not have a cosmology which integrates these findings with each other. Human instincts crave the truths of our existence. Neither the Big Bang nor the Steady State theory of the universe answers the questions raised by our new knowledge. CONTINUOUS CREATION gives us a clear third option. It presents us with a cogent reasoning. Interpretations of both scientific & everyday observations of nature make fulfilling cosmological sense. It provides the unitive structure for many contemporary views such as those found in James Lovelock's Gaia Hypothesis, Rupert Sheldrake's theory of morphogenic fields, Arthur Young's theory of light as the purposive origin of matter, Louis Kervran's observations of biological transmutations, Walter Elsasser's concept of spontaneity in living matter & Gregory Bateson's view of Mind in Nature. In this long neglected book, (its first reissue since 1950!) the reader will find a meaningful alternative to catastrophic Big Bangs & apathetic Steady States. Never before have we seen in so few pages an incorporation of chemistry, human physiology, geology, physics, engineering, biology, theology, &, most importantly, philosophy.Branfield, Wilfred is the author of 'Continuous Creation: A Biological Concept of the Nature of Matter', published 1994 under ISBN 9780916508487 and ISBN 091650848X.
