This book is unique in its identification of the homology between the atom and the cell, both of which exhibit deterministic and probabilistic traits, the cell using the atom as a template for its emergence. Using mathematical algorithms, the author has connected the inorganic with the organic, in the attempt to bridge evolutionary biology with the underlying role of quantum mechanics.
