2016 edición La vida, cuando se intenta explicar, es indefinible, y sin embargo conocer su origen y naturaleza es una inquietud milenaria del hombre. Si bien la ciencia contemporánea ha ampliado nuestro entendimiento acerca de la complejidad de la vida natural, al tiempo que ha logrado construir varios ejemplos de sistemas de vida artificial, la respuesta sobre qué es la vida aún está lejana. Los textos reunidos en este volumen abordan tres interrogantes: ¿qué características poseen todos los seres vivos?, ¿qué descripciones y teorías definen mejor la esencia de la vida? y ¿cómo construir y evaluar de manera adecuada los nuevos planteamientos acerca de su naturaleza? páginas/pasges.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Integrating both scientific and philosophical perspectives, this book provides an informed analysis of the challenges of formulating a universal theory of life. Among the issues discussed are crucial differences between definitions and scientific theories and, in the context of examples from the history of science, how successful general theories develop. The central problem discussed is two-fold: first, our understanding of life is still tacitly wedded to an antiquated Aristotelian framework for biology; and second, there are compelling reasons for considering that familiar Earth life, which descends from a last universal common ancestor, is unrepresentative. What is needed are examples of life as we don't know it. Potential sources are evaluated, including artificial life, extraterrestrial life, and a shadow biosphere right here on Earth, and a novel strategy for searching for unfamiliar life in the absence of a definition or general theory is developed. The book is a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers studying the nature, origins, and extent of life in the universe.…
