information-processing device, and recent findings suggest that it is more than a mechanical information device. Intelligence and consciousness are the rulers of the information process at a cosmic level. So is human intelligence at the worldly level. As above, so below is the ancient dictum of pre-historic Alchemy! According to Ken Wilber,18 several physicists acknowledged in their writings a personal spiritual dimension, but they refused to involve mysticism with their mathematical work. As Eddington put it: We should suspect an intention to reduce God to a system of differential equations....19 Nevertheless, some substantial progress has been made on strictly scientific ground by establishing that everything is interconnected, that there are no separate entities such as observer and phenomenon observed, as they interact and influence each other. But we are still far away from admitting that a spiritual link is connecting consciously everything with everything else! In another recent development, science now admits that intelligence is intrinsic in the structure of matter. The studies reported by Jeffrey Satinover on amoebas and paramecia show intelligent behavior in very primitive living organisms.20 Satinover reports that it was found by biologists that ...even a primitive single-celled organism exhibits an extraordinary computational complexity.21 Amoebas are unicellular, millions of years old organisms that still reproduce and survive in our day. They have no nervous system, and they do not have a brain. Therefore, it is an interesting subject of study for biological scientists to examine how they react in order to stay alive in laboratory conditions. The expression computational capability, used by Satinover in his report of these studies, denotes that these unicellular organisms respond to situations in the best way favorable to their survival. For example, using their cilia (hair-like appendices), they decide whether they should ...eat, fight, flee or reproduce, and to generate the synchronous motions needed to engage in all four actions.22 The fundamental aspect of this study is that inside these cilia are located special building blocks of protein molecules called tubulin, which are arranged in hollow structures called microtubules. In 1980 Stuart Hameroff, at the University of Arizona was the first to suggest that microtubules show computational capabilities, as reported by Satinover.23 This same type of protein molecule, tubulin, is found in the human nervous system. Satinover dedicates several pages in the Appendix B of his book to review the research related to the protein tubulin as the key to understand the intracellular, self-organized, intelligent, computational capabilities ...a highly specialized kind of microtubules is required in neurons for them to establish new connections.24 These human microtubules containing blocks of tubulin, function as signal transmitters. The microtubules network therefore adapt to the demands of the brain as a whole, with neuronal plasticity as intermediary.25 The important point is that the research shows that Intelligence is intrinsic in the structure of matter at the very early stages of evolution (such as protein molecules in the primordial amoeba and paramecium) and extends its function to the very core of the human brain (the most evolved biological structure). So, the new trend in Western science is holistic,
