In human chemistry, Gary Freedman (c.1950-) is an American paralegal turned bloger noted for his circa 2009 ebook Significant Moments, written in a somewhat nontraditional manner, namely writing each sentence or sentence fragment followed by the title of a book (and author) thematic to the sentence, in an alternating manner, one section of which of note he thematically groups a selection of books on the thematic topic of human chemistry. [1]

Human chemistry
As summarized his 2010 blog posting "The Chemistry of Human Relations", the following gray colored and double indented text (or yellow highlighted, as done in his blog) sections are said to be representative of human "relationship chemistry", so to speak, or at least as Freedman sees things: [2]

The reader, at this point, will have realized for some time now that this is not a chemical treatise: my presumption does not reach so far—"ma voix est foible, et meme un peu profane." Nor is it an autobiography, save in the partial and symbolic limits in which every piece of writing is autobiographical, indeed every human work; but it is in some fashion a . . .

Ernest Newman, The Life of Richard Wagner

Freedman, in this same blog post notes that although he received a "D" (barely passing) in his high school chemistry classes, he did have a liking for the tenacity or rather dedication of his teacher Ethel B. Fischer to her profession, and comments that he originally intended to dedicate the book to her. Freedman also noted that the above passage, on the overlap of chemistry and human behaviors, is an example of” homospatial thinking”, the active conception of two or more discrete entities occupying the same space, a conception leading to the articulation of new identities and creative thinking. [2] In retrospect 2012 commentary, in response to the query: "can you elaborate on the above section, i.e. what you meant by the "chemistry of human relations" in regards to the above book section?", Freedman stated:

"I am referring to the fact that people have complementary personality characteristics -- like atoms (individuals) in a molecule (a group of 2 or more persons)."

This would classify Freedman, so to speak, as a "human atom" point of view theorist.


A humorous take on the two prevailing primordial soup origin of life theories, as described adjacent by Freedman: left: lightening strike origin of life; right: comet strike origin of life; each, in turn, striking a so-called "soup of organic molecules" and bringing about the first self-reproducing organism in the Darwinian-based evolution mechanism.

Origin of life
In an earlier part of his book, Freedman summarizes the origin of life as follows:

Isaac Asimov, The Wellsprings of Life
The Greeks were . . .
Richard Wilbur, Excerpt from Lamarck Elaborated
. . . the first . . .
William Shakespeare, The Tempest
—did you know—
Guy de Maupassant, Fascination
. . . who said . . .
Richard Wilbur, Excerpt from Lamarck Elaborated
. . . that all bodies are composed of indivisible and
unchangeable atoms.
Will Durant, The Life of Greece
Chemically, all life is one.
Isaac Asimov, The Wellsprings of Life
That life is chemistry is true but boring, like saying that football is physics.
Life, to a rough approximation, consists of the chemistry of three atoms, hydrogen,
carbon and oxygen, which between them make up ninety-eight percent of all
atoms in living beings. But it is the emergent properties of life—such as
heritability—not the constituent parts that are interesting.

Matt Ridley, Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters
"Once upon a time, very long ago, . . .
Isaac Asimov, The Wellsprings of Life
. . . in the dark backward and abysm of time . . .
William Shakespeare, The Tempest
. . . perhaps two and a half billion years ago, under a deadly sun, in an
ammoniated ocean topped by a poisonous atmosphere, in the midst of a soup of
organic molecules, a nucleic acid molecule came accidentally into being that could
somehow bring about the existence of another like itself—"
And from that all else would follow!

This typical "soup of organic molecules" origin of life picture, shorthand for the warm pond model + Urey-Miller experiment, as many people currently see things, is one of the stepping stone to arrival of the "defunct theory of life" view.

Education
From 1988 to 1991, Freedman was a paralegal at the law firm; sometime thereafter he began blogging about his state of affairs. (Ѻ)
