The Singularity of Nature: A Convergence of Biology, Chemistry and Physics (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781788017978)

Understanding how simple molecules have given rise to the complex biochemical systems and processes of contemporary biology is widely regarded as one of chemistry's great unsolved questions. There are numerous theories as to the origins of life, the majority of which draw on the idea that DNA and nucleic acids are the central dogma of biology. This book takes a systems-based approach to the origin and evolution of complex life. Readers will gain a novel understanding of physiologic evolution and the limits to our current understanding, as well as offering new opportunities for understanding relationships between physics and biology in the origins of biological life at the cellular-molecular level.
