This paper presents a survey of advanced concepts and research perspectives, of a
philosophical-mathematical approach to describe the dynamics of systems of many interacting
living entities. The first part introduces the general conceptual framework. Then, a critical analysis
of the existing literature is developed and referred to a multiscale view of a mathematics of living
organisms. This paper attempts to understand how far the present state-of-the-art is far from the
achievement of such challenging objective. The overall study leads to identify research perspectives
and possible hints to deal with them.
