Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Life' is a foundational exploration into the principles of biology and the intricate workings of living organisms. Written by the distinguished zoologist Sir Arthur E. Shipley, this work serves as an accessible introduction to the fundamental characteristics that define life itself. Shipley navigates through the complexities of protoplasm, the structure of the cell, and the essential processes of nutrition, movement, and reproduction that sustain all living entities.Throughout the volume, the author emphasizes the unity of biological science, bridging the gap between the study of plants and animals to reveal the common threads that bind the natural world. From the simplest microscopic life forms to the complex physiology of higher organisms, 'Life' provides a comprehensive overview of the evolutionary and functional aspects of biology. Shipley's prose is noted for its clarity and engaging style, making profound scientific concepts approachable for students and general readers alike.As a significant historical contribution to scientific literature, 'Life' reflects the early 20th-century understanding of biological systems and the enthusiasm for discovery that characterized the era. It remains a valuable resource for those interested in the history of science, the evolution of biological thought, and the timeless wonder of the natural world.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
