Paperback. Condition: New. Our knowledge of our solar system has passed the point of no return. Increasingly, it seems possible that scientists will soon discover how life is created on habitable planets like Earth and Mars. Scientists have responded to a renewed public interest in the origin of life with research, but many questions still remain unanswered in the broader conversation. Other questions can be answered by the laws of chemistry and physics, but questions surrounding the origin of life are best answered by reasonable extrapolations of what scientists know from observing the Earth and its solar system. Origin of Life: What Everyone Needs to Know® is a comprehensive scientific guide on the origin of life. David W. Deamer sets out to answer the top forty questions about the origin of life, including: Where do the atoms of life come from? How old is Earth? What was the Earth like before life originated? Where does water come from? How did evolution begin? After he provides the informational answer for each question, there is a follow-up: How do we know? This question expands the horizon of the whole book, and provides scientific reasoning and explanations for hypotheses surrounding the origin of life. How scientists come to their conclusions and why we can trust these answers is an important question, and Deamer provides answers to each big question surrounding the origin of life, from what it is to why we should be curious.…

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Paperback. Condition: New. En El origen de la vida: lo que todo el mundo necesita saber, David W. Deamer ha escrito una guÍa completa sobre el origen de la vida que estÁ organizada en tres secciones. La primera secciÓn aborda preguntas como: ¿De dÓnde provienen los Átomos de la vida? ¿QuÉ edad tiene la Tierra? ¿CÓmo era la Tierra antes de que comenzara la vida? ¿De dÓnde viene el agua? DespuÉs de que se responde cada pregunta, hay un seguimiento: ¿CÓmo lo sabemos? Esto amplÍa el horizonte del libro, explicando cÓmo los cientÍficos llegan a conclusiones y por quÉ podemos confiar en estas respuestas. La segunda secciÓn describe cÓmo ciertas molÉculas orgÁnicas pueden ensamblarse espontÁneamente en poblaciones de protocÉlulas que pueden someterse a selecciÓn y evolucionar hacia sistemas vivos primitivos. AquÍ Deamer propone un concepto verdaderamente novedoso de que la vida no comenzÓ en el ocÉano sino en fuentes termales de agua dulce en masas de tierra volcÁnica que se asemejan a Hawaii hoy. El verdadero conocimiento no es solo lo que sabemos, sino que es igualmente importante lo que aÚn no sabemos. En la tercera secciÓn, Deamer enumera las preguntas pendientes que deben abordarse antes de que podamos finalmente responder a una pregunta fundamental de la biologÍa: ¿CÓmo puede comenzar la vida? In Origin of Life: What Everyone Needs to Know  , David W. Deamer has written a comprehensive guide to the origin of life that is organized in three sections. The first section addresses questions such as: Where do the atoms of life come from? How old is Earth? What was the Earth like before life began? Where does water come from? After each question is answered, there is a follow-up: How do we know? This expands the horizon of the book, explaining how scientists reach conclusions and why we can trust these answers. The second section describes how certain organic molecules can spontaneously assemble into populations of protocells that can undergo selection and evolve toward primitive living systems. Here Deamer proposes a truly novel concept that life did not begin in the ocean but instead in fresh water hot springs on volcanic land masses resembling Hawaii today. True knowledge is not just what we know, but equally important is what we don't yet know. In the third section Deamer lists the outstanding questions that must be addressed before we can finally answer a fundamental question of biology: How can life begin.…
