New Science of Astrobiology : From Genesis of the Living Cell to Evolution of Intelligent Behaviour in the Universe, Hardcover by Chela-Flores, Julian, ISBN 0792371259, ISBN-13 9780792371250, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Astrobiology is a very broad interdisciplinary field covering the origin, evolution, distribution, and destiny of life in the universe, as well as the design and implementation of missions for solar system exploration. A review covering its complete spectrum has been missing at a level accessible even to the non-specialist. The last section of th consists of a supplement, including a glossary, notes, and tables, which represent highly condensed `windows' into research ranging from basic sciences to earth and life sciences, as well as the humanities. These additions should make The New Science of Astrobiology accessible to a wide readership: scientists, humanists, and the general reader will have an opportunity to participate in one of the most rewarding activities of contemporary culture.
