Morphogenesis Deconstructed: An Integrated View of the Generation of Forms: The Frontiers Collection

Autor Len Pismen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 ian 2021
This book is about morphogenesis as the genesis of forms. It is not restricted to plants growing from seed or animals developing from an embryo (although these do supply the most abundant examples) but also addresses kindred processes, from inorganic to social to biomorphic technology. It is about our morphogenetic universe: unplanned, unfair and frustratingly complicated but benevolent in allowing us to emerge, survive, and inquire into its laws.
