Description

Explore a new theoretical approach to biology with this authored monograph from Springer. Part of the Lecture Notes in Morphogenesis series, this book examines the fundamental principles that govern living systems through a rigorous scientific lens. The text begins with an investigation into empirical biological scaling, looking at variability found in existing literature such as allometric relationships and fractals. By analyzing these patterns, the work provides a foundation for understanding how organisms grow and maintain structure. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to the concept of biological time. It addresses the need for a supplementary temporal dimension to account for biological rhythms and explores how concepts like protension and retention serve as methods for the local organization of time within living organisms. Additionally, the book investigates the role of symmetry in biological systems, offering a deep look at how these structures function in nature. This resource is designed for researchers and students seeking a theoretical framework for biological morphogenesis and organizational principles.
