Description

Explore the fundamental questions of biological history with this comprehensive volume from CRC Press. This text examines the significant developments in thermophile research that emerged in the late 1990s, offering deep insights into how these unique micro-organisms impact our understanding of evolution. Because thermophiles thrive in extreme environments near or above 100 degrees Celsius, they serve as vital models for scientists investigating the beginnings of life on Earth. This book brings together research from multiple scientific disciplines, including biology, genetics, biogeochemistry, oceanography, systematics, and evolution. By studying the biology of organisms that survive in high-temperature conditions, readers can find answers to complex questions regarding the origins of life and the environmental state of the early Earth. It is an essential resource for researchers and students looking to understand the molecular evolution of life through the lens of extremophiles.

Key Features

Explores the biological significance of thermophiles and their ability to thrive in temperatures near or above 100 degrees Celsius.

Provides scientific perspectives on the molecular evolution of life and the potential origins of biological processes on our planet.

Integrates diverse research fields including genetics, biogeochemistry, oceanography, and systematics into one volume.

Addresses fundamental scientific questions such as why life originated and the temperature conditions of the early Earth.

Serves as a detailed academic resource for those studying the connection between extreme environments and evolutionary theory.
