CHAPTER

Constructor Theory: A Unified Framework for Information and Physics

This chapter explores constructor theory, a new theoretical framework that aims to express the laws and principles underlying physical theories of information. It discusses the application of constructor theory to information theory, thermodynamics, and the physics of life, along with its potential implications for the study of the origin of life and life elsewhere in the universe. The chapter also differentiates between Turing machines and universal constructors, highlighting the latter's ability to perform any physical transformation.
