Abstract
One of the most characteristic evolutionary or cosmogenetic processes is a gradual transition from one mode of development to another. The time has now come, speaking from a de Chardinesque point of view rather than merely reflecting and relying upon Teilhard’s views, to compare and contrast the dominant modes of growth and development in the different spheres of emergence which supervene upon and enfold within themselves their predecessors in the evolutionary hierarchy.
