  • Periodic Tables Unifying Living Organisms At The Molecular Level: The Predictive Power Of The Law Of Periodicity

    by Antonio Lima-de-faria ...
    The DNA sequencing of a series of living organisms has elucidated many biological problems. But the internal atomic and electronic evolution of DNA remains to be mapped in detail. RNA and DNA now appear to be the prime determinants of biological evolution leading to the sudden appearance of novel organism structures and functions that emerge 'ready made' as a surprise to the organism. This has ... Read more

  • Molecular Origins of Brain and Body Geometry

    Plato's Concept of Reality is Reversed

    by Antonio Lima-de-Faria ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    New concepts arise in science when apparently unrelated fields of knowledge are put together in a coherent way. The recent results in molecular biology allow to explain the emergence of body patterns in animals that before could not be understood by zoologists.There are no ”fancy curiosities” in nature. Every pattern is a product of a molecular cascade originating in genes and a living organism ... Read more

  • Molecular Geometry of Body Pattern in Birds

    by Antonio Lima-de-Faria ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    After having read this book you will never see birds in the same way again.The unexpected patterns displayed by a bird’s body have been seen as bizarre events that demanded little attention or were described as ‘amazing curiosities’.None of these surprising features seem to be fortuitous. They appear to be an integral part of a rigid order and a coherent geometry, which is directed by simple gene ... Read more

    How Science Is Reinventing Life Itself

    by Adam Rutherford ...
    What is life?Humans have been asking this question for thousands of years. But as technology has advanced and our understanding of biology has deepened, the answer has evolved. For decades, scientists have been exploring the limits of nature by modifying and manipulating DNA, cells and whole organisms to create new ones that could never have existed on their own.In Creation, science writer Adam ...

  • Quantum Theory and Free Will

    How Mental Intentions Translate into Bodily Actions

    by Henry P. Stapp ...
    Series series Behavioral Science and Psychology (R0)
    This book explains, in simple but accurate terms, how orthodox quantum mechanics works. The author, a distinguished theoretical physicist, shows how this theory, realistically interpreted, assigns an important role to our conscious free choices. Stapp claims that mainstream biology and neuroscience, despite nearly a century of quantum physics, still stick essentially to failed classical precepts ... Read more

  • Cortical Development

    From Specification to Differentiation

    Edited by Christine F. Hohmann ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The cerebral neo cortex, unique to mammals, is regarded as the prerequisite for higher cognitive function and is the structure most closely associated with the idea of the "mind" . Expansion of mental capa city between mammals is most typically associated with an evolutionary increase in neocortical volume that culminates in the intricately folded configuration of sulci and gyri so charac teristic ...

  • Guilty Robots, Happy Dogs

    The Question of Alien Minds

    by David McFarland ...
    When we interact with animals, we intuitively read thoughts and feelings into their expressions and actions - it is easy to suppose that they have minds like ours. And as technology grows more sophisticated, we might soon find ourselves interpreting the behaviour of robots too in human terms. It is natural for us to humanize other beings in this way, but is it philosophically or scientifically ... Read more

  • Guidance Cues in the Developing Brain

    Edited by Ivica Kostovic ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Many complex molecular interactions are involved in the development of the mammalian brain. Molecules serving as guidance cues for migratory cells, growing axons and for recognition of postsynaptic targets are a major topic for research because they are directly involved in the formation of neuronal circuits, thus creating the foundation for subsequent functional refinement through interactions ...
