What Is Life? Definition vs. Theory
NAI’s “Philosopher in Residence” Carol Cleland of the University of Colorado Team is featured in this thought provoking article from SEED magazine. It gives a history of the problem of defining life, from Schrodinger’s “that which avoids the decay into equillibrium,” through the molecular revolution, and examines it in the context of ALH84001.
