The Nature of Life: Classical and Contemporary Perspectives from Philosophy and Science
"Editing a book of this kind always entails a risk because the particular professional interests and idiosyncrasies of the editors will affect the choice of contributions. However, I believe that the multifarious and matching interests of the editors were instrumental in producing an up to date and complete collection that will help the student of biology and philosophy alike. The editors did an outstanding job at devising an anthology that will be useful as a teaching instrument in a variety of classes in a variety of different disciplines. A marvelous book."Davide Vecchi, metapsychology online reviews"This is an admirable collection of incisive articles on a topic so fundamental and difficult that its resolution undoubtedly demands an interdisciplinary approach."Peter Takacs, Quarterly Review of Biology
