Who was in our study group?
This group of colleagues debated their own disciplines with each other in the context of a theoretical framework of systems science, with an emphasis on viable or self-organizing systems. They paid attention to physics, with its conservations of energy, mass, and momentum, to chemistry, with its making and breaking of bonds, and to general ‘input-output’ schemes. Emergence within each field was one of the last topics discussed.
