On: What Is Life? (1944) [pdf]

I think HN should have a rule that no one makes a general critique without including some specifics.

Here's a reference I just found without any effort, from an occurrence of the above quote in Freeman Dyson's Origins of Life.

GP comment does not deserve to be downvoted: a solid searchable reference was provided.

I'm not the person you're replying to, but I also didn't think much of the book. I read it 13 years ago, so it's hard for me to remember specifics of my criticisms.

I'm cool with that critique of my answer and will be more specific next time I post such a critique.
