 Volume 1

A. H. Louie
More Than Life Itself
A Synthetic Continuation in Relational Biology

Ask a question about this title
A. H. Louie’s More Than Life Itself is an exploratory journey in relational biology, a study of life in terms of the organization of entailment relations in living systems. This book represents a synergy of the mathematical theories of categories, lattices, and modelling, and the result is a synthetic biology that provides a characterization of life. Biology extends physics. Life is not a specialization of mechanism, but an expansive generalization of it. Organisms and machines share some common features, but organisms are not machines. Life is defined by a relational closure that places it beyond the reach of physicochemical and mechanistic dogma, outside the reductionistic universe, and into the realm of impredicativity. Function dictates structure. Complexity brings forth living beings.

About the Author

A. H. Louie is a mathematical biologist. His research interest is in pure mathematical biology: conception and abstract formulations. His two major research topics are category-theoretic aspects of living systems and a phenomenological calculus based on multilinear algebra. He lives in Ottawa, Canada.
