Description
In keeping with the Einstein concept of unified fields, a general cosmological problem (GCP) is proposed which requires not only a physical basis for the unification of gravitation and electromagnetism but the incorporation as well of the origin and dynamics of the phenomenon of organic evolution-for the case of a living system existing in Opik's oscillating universe.
To effect this unification, the assumption must be made that in its final analysis the universe consists of a single entity viz*, a subquanturn mechanical "ether" referred to as "cosmic entropy" and all events in the physical universe constitute perturbations in the local field of this fundamental continuum or entity. Using a hypothetical model cell, an attempt is made to derive a biophysical analog of the Einstein relation E = MC2 and which under certain boundary conditions reduces to a similar form. One can effect the solution (GCP) by simply defining the living process as the annihilation of infinitesimal quantities of matter and Life as the production of cosmic entropy. Organic evolution therefore is a natural consequence in the effort to increase the efficiency of the conversion process.
