Praise of chromosome "folly"

by A. Lima-de-Faria

"This book is for those who have perceived that the scientific endeavor is an ever changing process in which the explanations available at a given time only lead to a partial understanding of the known phenomena. It is directed to enquiring minds to have harbored doubts about the correctness of prevailing monolithic ideas and have been looking for alternative explanations." "By anchoring the chromosome's contradictory behavior on molecular processes directed by atomic self-assembly, Antonio Lima-de-Faria expands a novel view of the chromosome with unexpected implications for genetics, evolution and physics."--Jacket.
