Evolution and Transition in Physics
Evolution involves the universe using memory of past objects to generate new objects. The concept of maximizing the number of things that can exist leads to a transition in which exploring all possibilities through the second law of thermodynamics or selecting on the histories of objects becomes dominant. This transition marks a shift in physics where selection as a force in nature becomes critical, driving the dominance of this force in the physics of complexity and chemistry.
