An integrative view of the evolution of genetics and the natural
world
Even in this advanced age of genomics, the evolutionary process
of unicellular and multicellular organisms is continually in
debate. Evolutionary Biology, Cell-Cell Communication, and
Complex Disease challenges current wisdom by using physiology to
present an integrative view of the nature, origins, and evolution
of fundamental biological systems.
Providing a deeper understanding of the way genes relate to the
traits of living organisms, this book offers useful information
applying evolutionary biology, functional genomics, and cell
communication studies to complex disease. Examining the 4.5
billion-year evolution process from environment adaptations to
cell-cell communication to communication of genetic information for
reproduction, Evolutionary Biology hones in on the "why and how" of
evolution by uniquely focusing on the cell as the smallest unit of
biologic structure and function.
Based on empirically derived data rather than association
studies, Evolutionary Biology covers:
* A model for forming testable hypotheses in complex disease
studies
* The integrating role played by the evolution of metabolism,
especially lipid metabolism
* The evolutionary continuum from development to homeostasis
* Regeneration and aging mediated by signaling molecules
Ambitious and game-changing Evolutionary Biology suggests that
biology began as a mechanism for reducing energy within the cell,
defying the Second Law of Thermodynamics. An ideal text for those
interested in forward thinking scientific study, the insights
presented in Evolutionary Biology help practitioners effectively
comprehend the evolutionary process.
