  • The Life Puzzle

    On Crystals and Organisms and on the Possibility of a Crystal as an Ancestor

    by A.G. Cairns-Smith ...
    Series series Heritage
    What is the origin of life? Molecular biology shows us one kind, but in thinking about it we must consider those generalised aspects of living organisation that are common to all conceivable forms of life. The author believes that only a combination of general biological theory and particular chemical knowledge can solve the problems of the origin and re-creation of life. This book does not fall ...

  • Order and Disorder in the World of Atoms

    by A.I. Kitaigorodskiy ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Our main aim is to examine whether the atoms and molecules constituting the world around us are distributed in space in a random and disordered fashion, like pebbles on the beach, or in an ordered pattern like the cells of a honeycomb. However, it is often impossible to make such a clear-cut distinction, and it is better not to use "order" and "disorder" as absolute terms but to speak instead of a ... Read more
