Information, Entropy, and the Origin of Life

... life is one of the great unsolved mysteries in science (Radetsky1992; Wade 2000). At the heart of this mystery is the generation of the critical information that is necessary to provide the three ... Thermodynamics. This will allow us to understand how living systems are able to sustain themselves against the downward pull of the Second Law of Thermodynamics and how thermodynamics affects...
