ABSTRACT
One of the scientific conclusions that most dominated the late nineteenth century was Charles Darwin’s evolutionary theory, summarised by the slogan: ‘the survival of the fittest’. Darwin’s evolutionary theory has generated much debate, and continues to elicit vigorous exchanges, with both opposition and admiration for his vision. A scientific concept that has been popularised in the late twentieth century is the law of entropy. This leads to a second criticism of science: the law of entropy. There is no doubt that entropy is a fact of life for that one person. But this logic only holds when the time factor under consideration is a linear one. The law of entropy should be replaced by the law of regeneration. The laws of evolution and entropy are typical creations of the logic that only functions within the linear paradigm that has created these laws.
