Unreasonable Effectiveness of Physics in Biology

Abstract

We demonstrate that the system of fine-tuning constraints for life is, in a sense, overdetermined: the a priori probability of its feasibility is extremely low, especially in the chemical sector. This entails that the structure of the physical laws is even more "unreasonable" than Eugene Wigner envisaged.
