Automation of Metabolic and Regenerative Processes:
“Getting hungry is an automated process, as is breathing. So also are the spontaneous self-guiding and regenerative responses to any threatened impairment of our physiological equipment. While man’s consciously elective participation in all that goes on is almost negligible, he argues the pros and cons of today’s problems and conducts elections in the belief that he and other humans are primarily responsible for all that occurs. Nature is usually disdained by man as consisting of an easily controlled and as yet unattended set of disorderly happenstances. Too much Sun? Put on glasses! Too many bugs? Use the DDT gun!”
