The Rainbow and the Worm: The Physics of Organisms 3rd Edition PDF Download Ebook. Mae-Wan Ho takes the reader on a voyage of discovery through many areas of contemporary physics from non-equilibrium thermodynamics to quantum optics, all necessary to illuminate the problem of life.
In the process, the reader is treated to a rare and exquisite view of the organism, gaining novel insights, not only into the physics, but also "the poetry and meaning of being alive". It is intended for all who love the subject. The book is recommended to all scientists who are interested in understanding life. It shows that life is more than a complex chemical reaction and, written by an author who understands life not only through the narrow tube of our ratio, worth living with loving care.
The book can be easily understood, because it is written in a way that the basic scientific terms are repeated step by step before they are used for discussing the essential questions. Fifty years after Schrodinger's "What is Life?", this book is a worthy installment, since it intensifies the original matter of Schrodinger.
Mae-Wan Ho presents an interconnected system of proposals, experimental results and conjectures which go a large way towards proving an entirely new answer to this question. It is based on research which is mainstream in its theoretical physical foundations, though innovatory in some of its techniques. This makes the book highly important, and if she is right it would be revolutionary.
