Biology, meaning the science of all life, is a late notion.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Biology is the science. Evolution is the concept that makes biology unique.
Biology is the study of complicated things that have the appearance of having been designed with a purpose.
And the more profoundly the science of biology reveals the laws of the life and development of living bodies, the more effective is the science of agronomy.
Evolution is the fundamental idea in all of life science - in all of biology.
Life is not an exact science, it is an art.
My interest in biology was pretty much always on the philosophical side.
Biology has tended to be an observational science, and deriving things from first principles has not been possible in the past, but I hate to predict the future on that.
Science is all metaphor.
I naively thought that we could have a molecular definition for life, come up with a set of genes that would minimally define life. Nature just refuses to be so easily quantified.
Life isn't a science. We make it up as we go.
