Countercurrent of Life

An examination of biology through the lens of thermodynamics affirms Aristotelian and Thomistic emphases on the centrality of volitional action in the good life. Life is characterized by far-from-equilibrium homeostasis that requires and enables work. Entropy leads to genetic disorders, senescence,...

520 |a An examination of biology through the lens of thermodynamics affirms Aristotelian and Thomistic emphases on the centrality of volitional action in the good life. Life is characterized by far-from-equilibrium homeostasis that requires and enables work. Entropy leads to genetic disorders, senescence, cancers, and emerging pathogens, yet also drives the generation of novelty and freedom, and opens opportunities for the directed exercise of free will towards the good. A model of evolution as a teleologic process moving in the direction of increasing biospheric information recalls the Logos of the Gospel According to John as first cause and final end.
