This book, well ahead of its time, argues that life is not a particular substance that inhabits complex organisms, but rather is a set of functions exhibited by matter when arranged in elaborate ways. The author argues that life is not a magical property that animates matter, but is instead the result of the physical and chemical properties of matter itself. From this perspective, life is not distinct from matter, but is instead a particular arrangement and organization of matter. In making this case, the author draws on evidence from a wide range of scientific disciplines, including biology, chemistry, and physics. He argues that the laws of thermodynamics, for example, can be used to explain the behavior of living organisms just as well as they can be used to explain the behavior of non-living matter. The book challenges the traditional view of life as a separate and distinct entity. By demonstrating that life is a consequence of the behavior of matter, the author forces a reconceptualization of our understanding of living and nonliving things. This has profound implications for our understanding of the natural world, our place in it, and our relationship to other living things. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
