I haven't read this book this weekend and I haven't even finished this book myself. I think I stopped at some point in the center because life got in the way. And then I never started reading again. This must have been at least 5 years ago.
But I really need to finish this book. It contemplates how life can arise from dead things like stones. The book continuously uses the concept of loops for that.
For example, life may arise when things start to react to their environment. However, by reacting, they change their environment and thus they need to react to this new environment again. And so on. According to this book, this might be all there is to life, lol :)
Or not sure, it's been some time :)
