Abstract
The thesis is developed that living things are truly events in time and any arbitrarily selected historical stage is thus only an abstraction. Furthermore, the principle of the continuity of life coupled with an appreciation of the unbroken continuity of the living and the non-living leads to the conclusion that there is only one organism, the universe, manifesting itself in various degrees of complexity.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
