Description

Genesis - In The Beginning explores the fundamental questions of life's origin and early biological evolution, examining where and when life first emerged on Earth. This Springer volume investigates prebiotic chemical processes and polymer self-replication in mineral environments, whilst examining the photobiological conditions that shaped early Earth. The book addresses the role of symmetry, information and order through homochiral biomolecules in life's genesis, presenting scientific models of protocells and the genetic code. Part of the Cellular Origin, Life in Extreme Habitats and Astrobiology series (Volume 22), this comprehensive examination bridges chemistry and biology to illuminate life's precursors and the mechanisms underlying early biological diversity.

Key Features
