The University of Chicago Science Series. Individuality in Organisms

The University of Chicago Science Series. Individuality in Organisms Charles Manning Child covers the role of individuality in biology from both a philosophical and a scientific perspective. The book elaborates on how the individual is the center of life and how the basic laws of physics are fundamental to all organisms, but it goes further than that by discussing how these ideas apply to how humans view themselves and their bodies. Containing several diverse perspectives and varying topics, these accessible texts feature detailed illustrations and elegant diagrams. From the molecule to multicellular organisms, each text explores individuality in different ways.
