Beskrivelse
Sixty years into modern molecular and cellular biology, we still cannot describe the process that gives rise to life. Has it ever occurred to you that the remaining secrets of the living state might not be in the molecular quantities that everyone is preoccupied with. ...that maybe the answer lies in things that we cannot see...like the cell's energy structure, or an esoteric entropy relationship, or perhaps even an entirely different thermodynamic treatment. Relax This book has done all of the tedious legwork for you. Begin by understanding that the missing half of the answer to Schrodinger's question: What is life? lies beyond the molecular quantities that we can see, and within the realm of energy relationships that are invisible, and only accessible through theory. Also understand that all cellular processes, be they synthesis or metabolic, evolve entirely in accord with reversible thermodynamics, and that the precise sequence of cellular events is fully described by the Principle of Least Action. In effect you will now be able to model the cell with the same precision that until now has been reserved exclusively for the study of physics. This is an opportunity to put on your new eyes of discovery and see the world of biology as it has never been seen before.
