What is Life?epub,mobi,azw3格式电子书下载，作者：Erwin Schrödinger-大蓝莓

Nobel laureate Erwin Schrodinger's What is Life? is one of the great science classics of the twentieth century. A distinguished physicist's exploration of the question which lies at the heart of biology, it was written for the layman, but proved one of the spurs to the birth of molecular biology and the subsequent discovery of the structure of DNA. The philosopher Karl Popper hailed it as a 'beautiful and important book' by 'a great man to whom I owe a personal debt for many exciting discussions'. It appears here together with Mind and Matter, his essay investigating a relationship which has eluded and puzzled philosophers since the earliest times. Schrodinger asks what place consciousness occupies in the evolution of life, and what part the state of development of the human mind plays in moral questions. Brought together with these two classics are Schrodinger's autobiographical sketches, published and translated here for the first time. They offer a fascinating fragmentary account of his life as a background to his scientific writings, making this volume a valuable additon to the shelves of scientist and layman alike.

埃尔温·薛定谔（1887-1961），奥地利物理学家。20世纪的前30年中物理学经历了一次大革命，解决了微观运动的基本规律问题。薛定谔生活在这个时代，1926年他提出了波动力学，是量子力学的标准形式之一。薛定谔因此而获得诺贝尔奖。后来他的兴趣转向生命科学，1943年写的《生命是什么》，为分子生物学的诞生作了概念上的准备。
