pelce (u. Of Provence, Marseilles) Uses A Quantitative Approach To Describe The Mechanisms Of Growth, The Equations That Govern Those Dynamics, The Theoretical Basis Of Physics Out Of Equilibrium, And Growth Laws That Are Thus Derived. Because The Analysis Is So Deep, He Has Limited The Number Of Growth Patterns He Considers Mostly To Those Observed In Inanimate Matter, Which Are Well Understood.
