Über den Bildungstrieb by Johann Friedrich Blumenbach
"Über den Bildungstrieb" by Johann Friedrich Blumenbach is a scientific treatise published in 1781. The work introduces Blumenbach's concept of the *Bildungstrieb* (formative drive), a proposed life force governing generation, nutrition, and reproduction in living organisms. This three-stage biological theory of self-organization explores the driving force behind the biological cycle of procreation, nourishment, and reproduction. Blumenbach first coined the term in 1780 before developing his ideas more comprehensively in this influential publication.
