Abstract
My dissertation “Über Leben” (Würzburg: Ergon, 1996, 400 pp.) (several meanings: beyond life, about life and survival) attempts to answer the single question: How is the preservation of “pterophorus pentadactylus” to be accounted for? This inconspicuous species of moth is scarcely known and its extinction is irrelevant to statistical ecology.
