| 8.1. ... |
There are many theoretical models of the origin of life mechanisms, based on notions of complexity. Particularly well known, and very often cited, is, for example, the model developed by Stuart Kauffman on the spontaneous arising of catalytic networks. One can say, however, that this and other theoretical models have had very little influence on the experimentalists in the field of the origin of life, mostly due to the fact that they have never be observed in the real world of organic chemistry. Do you agree?
