Product Description:
Thishighly interdisciplinary book highlights many of the ways in whichchemistry plays a crucial role in making life an evolutionarypossibility in the universe. Cosmologists and particle physicists haveoften explored how the observed laws and constants of nature lie withina narrow range that allows complexity and life to evolve and adapt.Here, these anthropic considerations are diversified in a host of newways to identify the most sensitive features of biochemistry andastrobiology. Celebrating the classic 1913 work of Lawrence J.Henderson, The Fitness of the Environment for Life, this book looks atthe delicate balance between chemistry and the ambient conditions inthe universe that permit complex chemical networks and structures toexist. It will appeal to a broad range of scientists, academics, andothers interested in the origin and existence of life in our universe.
