Biosphere and man

As is known, the theory of evolution put forward by various researchers and considered a variety of causes and circumstances of the origin of species in the animal kingdom and their genesis, mainly based on the concept of variation, mutation laws of heredity and evolutionary adaptation of organisms to the surrounding environment.

The fact of the complexity of the serial number of the animal's nervous system itself is pushing the idea that the biosphere and people exposed to certain spontaneous impulses of evolution itself, which do not depend on the external environment.While there is no definitive scientific concept behind this improvement, still required and its history, and the theory of matter.Vernadsky also conjectured that the revolutionary variability in the morphology of living beings depends on critical periods in the geological history of the planet, the impulses that go beyond the actual terrestrial phenomena.The intensity of the process, in his opinion, may be to completely investigated yet, and therefore it is not clear to us, cosmic impacts.

interesting that first appeared among geologists and scientific understanding of the meaning expressed by the man and his activities in the rational transformation of the Earth.The problem itself biosphere and people precisely because of their active labor has become a problem truly scientific character.For example, the American explorer Charles Schubert and Russian scientist Alexei Petrovich Pavlov independently concluded that the need to allocate the era of the appearance of man on Earth in the geological era.Pavlov gave her the name of the man-made, Schubert - Psychozoic.Himself Vernadsky pointed out that even the founder of glaciology JL Agassi in the nineteenth century, wrote about the era of man, and to him, in the XVIII century, Buffon - the "kingdom" of man.

But in the history of philosophical thought, long before this, Vernadsky sees the thoughts associated with the comprehension of the role and place of life in the universe.It also connects them with the ideas of living matter.Suffice it to recall in connection with this theme of two great thinkers of the XVIII century, that long before Darwin and Dana were moved in their arguments about the nature of man and his place in nature with deep evolutionary ideas.One of these thinkers was Alexander Radishchev, who in his work "On Man, His Mortality and Immortality" wrote that the people - the upper stage of an ongoing process of improving the nature and impact of human activity on the biosphere is boundless because it is creative effects.This feature alone helps to overcome physical imperfections and acts to some extent a compensatory factor in determining the place of man in the biosphere.

Another such scientist was German educator Herder, who in his work "The ideas of the philosophy of history," claimed that all continue to achieve its purpose in the universe of all living beings on earth, it is people.Objectivity it comes to the further development of Herder and Radishcheva of the force that determines the formation of the world, finding them their life form.

The same problem - the biosphere and man as a dream predecessors sound in the works of VI Vernadsky differently, rationalistic and convincingly.Rejecting utopianism some views, but keeping the evolutionary logic, it claims an objective focus of the living, which can not limit the appearance of a person in the present, yet very imperfect habitat.

idea that the biosphere and people are only empirical generalization of the evolutionary process, opens up a huge layer of issues in science that were previously either been resolved or unscientific.According to this logic, Homo sapiens can not be an example of perfect mental apparatus.This is only a link in the chain of beings who prepared for the evolution of both past and future.
