Tempos in Science and Nature : Structures, Relations and Complexity

The complexity of nature makes it necessary to develop concepts and theories that go beyond the reductionist or mechanical.

This volume attempts to address the problems of complex systems in understanding natural phenomena and the behavior of systems related to human activity from the perspectives of both science and the humanities.

The book, which discusses complex molecular behavior and structure and offers examples of ecological and environmental modeling, includes contributions from specialists in the fields of evolution and consciousness, ecological mathematical modeling, bioenergetics, nonlinear chemical systems, and autopoiesis.
