But it also highlights how significant our specifics—our particular history, biology, etc.—are. And that term immediately brings to mind wages, economics, etc. And, yes, plenty of what people do (at least in the world as it is today) is driven by issues of economics. Some of it seems intrinsic to our biological nature.

Could it really be that this was the secret that nature had been using all along to make complexity? But it really wasn’t physics, or computer science, or math, or biology, or economics, or any known field. Sometimes I’ve thought of ruliology as being at first a bit like natural history.

Meet David I majored in anthropology and biology at university. I took courses with a biological anthropologist who inspired me to study how humans use biology and culture to adapt (or not) to stressful environments such as food scarcity, extreme temperatures, and common diseases. Food brings people together but can also divide them.

There was one major exception, however, in 1738, when—as part of his eclectic mathematical career spanning probability theory, elasticity theory, biostatistics, economics and more— Daniel Bernoulli (1700–1782) published his book on hydrodynamics. Well, Boltzmann had been an enthusiast of Darwin’s idea of natural selection.
