Holism and the Evolving Cell
A Theoretical Consideration on Cellular Evolution

Beschreibung
This book is unique in its identification of the homology between the atom and the cell, both of which exhibit deterministic and probabilistic traits, the cell using the atom as a ‘template’ for its emergence. Using mathematical algorithms, the author has connected the inorganic with the organic, in the attempt to bridge evolutionary biology with the underlying role of quantum mechanics.

Highlights the relevance of quantum mechanics at the cellular level Discussed the origin of consciousness as integrated physiology Insight on the cell as the basis for holism in physiology and consciousness
