Abstract

Charles Robert Darwin hypothesized that the mechanism of evolution and the diversity of life on earth are because of natural selection. That is, which biological entity would thrive on earth is a matter of selection by the nature. But, in the present article it is hypothesized that the process of appearance of different types of biological entities and the orientation of these organisms in the space in respect to time are the effects of 'will force' of the organisms concerned. That is, the mechanism of evolution is a process of self selection, not natural selection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
