Touchstone of Life - Werner R. Loewenstein

Molecular Information, Cell Communication, and the Foundations of Life

KORTE INHOUD

Living things present us with example after example of highly ordered matter, precisely shaped and organised to perform co-ordinated functions. Where does this order spring from? how does a living organism manage to do what non-living things cannot do - create and maintain order against the unrelenting, disordering pressures of the universe? Emanate bio-physicist Werner Loewenstein argues that the answer to these questions may be found by applying information theory to biology and physics.
