The present article is devoted to the investigation of the scientific process of gaining knowledge of nature as an informative movement. This process includes the perception of information from nature and its transformation by man as a self-organized system, the final result of which is gained knowledge. Cognition is considered as interaction of an investigator with nature. Information is transferred from a syntactic to a semantic and to a pragmatic form as a process for using this information in life.

Статья посвящена исследованию процесса освоения природы в виде движения информации, её восприятия естествоиспытателем, последующего преобразования самим естествоиспытателем как самоорганизующейся системой, конечным результатом которого становятся достигнутые знания.
