The cosmic blueprint

new discoveries in nature's creative ability to order the universe
Book • 1987
In 'The Cosmic Blueprint', Paul Davies explores the idea that the universe is not a collection of random events but is instead governed by underlying principles that guide its evolution.

Davies investigates the possibility that self-organization and complexity are inherent properties of the cosmos, leading to the emergence of life and consciousness.

He examines various scientific fields, including physics, biology, and information theory, to support his arguments.

The book challenges the traditional view of a purely mechanistic universe, proposing instead a universe with a built-in drive towards complexity and order.

Davies suggests that these principles may have profound implications for our understanding of the nature of existence and our place within the cosmos.
