Book Synopsis Reflections on a Theory of Organisms by : Walter M. Elsasser
Book excerpt: In a thought-provoking and controversial work first published in 1987, eminent geophysicist Walter M. Elsasser argues that the behavior of living organisms cannot be reduced to physico-chemical causality. Suggesting that molecular biology today is at the same point as Newtonian physics on the eve of the quantum revolution, Elsasser lays the foundation for a theoretical biology that points the way toward a natural philosophy of organic life.
