Unas décadas después de que Charles Darwin publicara su obra sobre la evolución de las especies, el fÃsico Ludwig Boltzmann se propuso aplicar el concepto de evolución a todos los sistemas naturales. El curso de un rÃo, la formación de un tornado, la actividad de la atmósfera o nuestro propio planeta son sistemas capaces de autoorganizarse para perdurar, al igual que la vida se adapta para subsistir en el tiempo. Tiempo que otorga a la evolución su papel creador. A few decades after Charles Darwin published his book about the evolution of species, physicist Ludwig Boltzmann ventured to apply Darwin's concept of evolution to all natural systems. The course of a river, the shaping of a twister, the atmospheric activity, and even our planet itself are all systems that need to undergo self-organization in order to persist, in the same way that life adjusts through time. Time which gives evolution its creative role.
