Abstract
Cell reactions in Agardhiella, cambium, the formation of spicules of sponges, Microstomum, and insect galls of plants show a spatiotemporal orderliness of a nature not yet descr. in physicochemical terms and seeming'' to require directive control. To seek to bring such control under experimental analysis is a proper aim of natural science. We are not justi fied, however, in extending to problems of daily life the assumption required in scientific research that the only reality is ponderable.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
