摘要：

The natural genesis of life on Earth is a hypothesis of evolutionary science; it is the task of synthetic organic chemistry to test this hypothesis experimentally. The aim of an experimental aetiological chemistry is not primarily to delineate the pathways along which our ('natural') life on Earth could have originated, but to provide decisive experimental evidence, through the realization of model systems ('artificial chemical life'), that life can arise as a result of the organization of organic matter.
