Produktbeschreibung
The question of how life began is one of the most fundamental concerns in both science and religion. This issue stands at the heart of the conflict between atheistic and religious worldviews, and is deemed a mystery in science. Recent advances, however, in our understanding of the structure and function of DNA and protein have produced a wealth of knowledge concerning the uniqueness of these biological entities. This book hopes to contribute to this debate by arguing that of the three possible modes of explanation - regularity, chance and design - the informational nature of biological systems make design based explanations the most plausible. Furthermore, the available length of time for chemical evolution, the accepted atmospheric conditions of the early earth, and the integrated nature of biological systems all argue against competing explanations to design. The issues addressed here should be of interest to scholars and advanced students who are concerned with the question of the origin of life from both a religious and a scientific perspective.
