In the 1970s, Margulis worked with James Lovelock on the Gaia hypothesis, according to which the Earth functions as a living organism, in which all elements interact and adapt, creating self-regulating mechanisms conducive to the existence of life. The name Gaia was proposed by the writer William Golding during a walk with Lovelock. Years later, Lovelock recounts that the name he initially heard was Gyre, not Gaia, leaving the question forever unanswered: if, instead of Gaia, we discussed Gyre, far from its New Age connotations, would its reception be different? Margulis was a mother and a woman, and that is no small thing in the landscape of science, then and now. His understanding of life, both inside and outside academia, did not go unnoticed by everyone who crossed his path: his pursuit of collaboration, including in his writing, with his eldest son, Dorion Sagan; his eagerness to leave the laboratory and his pragmatism in approaching his favorite subjects, bacteria; and finally, his fascination with narratives about collective thought and societal change.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trienal de Lisboa Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57430923772288,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/5126\/3104\/files\/Digitalizacao16.jpg?v=1771520517","url":"https:\/\/trienaldelisboa.myshopify.com\/products\/gaia-e-filosofia","provider":"Trienal de Lisboa Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
