To Seek Out New Life
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Crown Publishing Group (NY)
- Publish date: 03/31/1998
Description:
The Star Trek TV series, movies, and books have speculated as much about the nature and potential of life as they have about such inorganic concerns as warp speed. black holes, and time travel. In The Biology of Star Trek, Athena Andreadis uses her expertise in the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology -- to make clear which of Star Trek's life-related phenomenal are feasible and which fly in the face of the ion-stream of common sense.
Expand description
How probable, for instance, are non-carbon-based life-forms, such as the silicon-based Horta? Why is the teleportation of living things so unlikely? Why is Vulcan science, which says that feelings and thinking can be separated in the nervous system, logically inconsistent?
Everyone who enjoyed The Physics of Star Trek, and everyone who has ever wondered what life is in its essence, will find The Biology of Star Trek a delight.
