Silvana Procacci, Ph.D., is professor’s assistant of the philosophy of history at the
University of Perugia (Italy), and she has been associate professor at the
Theological Institute of Assisi (ITA) where she took courses concerning the
relationship between science and theology. She was a member of the European

(California) and now is co-chair of the Etruscan Local Group, an LSI of the
Metanexus Institute. In 1994 she received her degree with full marks and
honours in philosophy, presenting a thesis about the anthropic principle. Her
Ph.D. thesis concerned the holism-reductionism debate around three areas of
semantics: ontology, methodology and epistemology. She is currently working in
the philosophical aspects of the evolution of the Universe and its connection
with life and cosmic organization. The aim is to analyze some
philosophical-scientific problems to make a connection between complexity,
consciousness, and the evolutionary laws of the Universe. She has published
many articles and five books.
