“THE MODERN SYNTHESIS regards the genetic code as a lineup of molecules that can be investigated through physics and chemistry and mathematics (for sure). And this is it. However, we know the genetic content of organisms is about communication, which cannot be reduced simply to physics and chemistry. Since the 1970s, Manfred Eigen has insisted that the genetic code is really a language, not just metaphorically, but a real language.”
