What is Life?

How Chemistry Becomes Biology (Oxford Landmark Science)

Addy Pross

This fascinating book delves into profound questions that have puzzled scientists for decades: What is life and how did it emerge from non-life? Using the emerging field of 'systems chemistry,' author Addy Pross explores how replicating molecules can result in complex chemical systems that acquire the properties of life. He reveals how Darwinian evolution is the expression of a deeper chemical concept. This groundbreaking work finally bridges the gulf between biology and physical science.
