First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Half a century ago, before the discovery of DNA, the Austrian physicist and philosopher Erwin Schrdinger inspired a generation of scientists by rephrasing the fascinating philosophical question: What is life? Using their expansive understanding of recent science to wonderful effect, acclaimed authors Lynn Margulis and Dorion Sagan revisit this timeless question in a fast-moving, wide-ranging narrative that combines rigorous science with philosophy, history, and poetry. The authors move deftly across a dazzling array of topics-from the dynamics of the bacterial realm, to the connection between sex and death, to theories of spirit and matter. They delve into the origins of life, offering the startling suggestion that life-not just human life-is free to act and has played an unexpectedly large part in its own evolution. Transcending the various formal concepts of life, this captivating book offers a unique overview of lifes history, essences, and future.Supplementing the text are stunning illustrations that range from the smallest known organism (Mycoplasma bacteria) to the largest (the biosphere itself). Creatures both strange and familiar enhance the pages of What Is Life? Their existence prompts readers to reconsider preconceptions not only about life but also about their own part in it.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. What does it mean to live, to be alive, to be a being both a part of the world but yet separated from it by our skin? This scientific and philosophical exploration delves into one of the oldest questions of mankind. Exploring the meanings of death, the origins of life, the biological connection between death and sex, the symbiotic evolution of the five organic kingdoms - bacteria, protoctists, animals, fungi and plants, the authors make the assertation that to answer the question What is Life? is a linguistic trap: the answer is not a noun, but a verb - life is a complex material process, constantly changing. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
