Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardcover. A scientific exploration of the varied forms, origins, and meanings of death.While death may be one of lifes most predictable surprises, it has also proved itself to be one of the most fascinating and cutting-edge areas of scientific inquiry. Our bodies and lives tell a story of cellular creation and destruction that can be traced back to Earths primordial oceans. Yet when we follow the interwoven thread of beginnings and endings in an effort to discover deaths origins, nature, and meaning, we find that we cannot settle on a single definition of death or even a single interpretation of it. It would seem that there is not one death, but an endless variety of forms, each of which raises further questions about how well we understand deaths counterpoint life.Using death as a connecting theme, in Endless Endings, Ricard Sole explores the differing meanings of death in varied forms, reflecting on questions that are pushing forward the frontiers of scientific understanding. What is the physical basis of inevitable decay? Can we manipulate cellular rules to avoid death? What does death mean if life occurs inside a computer? Can a conscious machine save itself from death? Is immortality possible? What does it mean for language, thought, or information to die? As Sole reveals, lifes endings can be just as fascinating and varied as life itself.'This brief book lures readers into contemplating decay and demise on a broad scale, encompassing cells and organisms and entire species, machines and information, languages and cities, even stars.' Tony Miksanek, Booklist A scientific exploration of the varied forms, origins, and meanings of death.
