Pages : 58
Book Description
"Chief 'Molecule' Malik #3: Continuing in his Honor with Acts 51-75" is a science fiction play/story set in a microscopic universe populated by atomic and subatomic particles personified as characters. The narrative follows the aftermath of Chief Malik's passing, where a new generation of particles led by Oxy Flame must confront challenges to their society's stability. The plot involves a rebellious faction led by Hot Plasma who endangers their civilization through reckless atomic experimentation, followed by the emergence of an interdimensional threat from the Shadow Organization and Void Order. Throughout these crises, the story emphasizes themes of unity, responsible leadership, and honoring legacy, as the characters work to protect their "Microverse" while upholding the principles established by the revered Chief Malik.

Pages : 280
Book Description
“A beautifully written journey into the mechanics of the world of the cell, and even beyond, exploring the analogy with computers in a surprising way” (Denis Noble, author of Dance to the Tune of Life). How does a single-cell creature, such as an amoeba, lead such a sophisticated life? How does it hunt living prey, respond to lights, sounds, and smells, and display complex sequences of movements without the benefit of a nervous system? This book offers a startling and original answer. In clear, jargon-free language, Dennis Bray taps the findings from the discipline of systems biology to show that the internal chemistry of living cells is a form of computation. Cells are built out of molecular circuits that perform logical operations, as electronic devices do, but with unique properties. Bray argues that the computational juice of cells provides the basis for all distinctive properties of living systems: it allows organisms to embody in their internal structure an image of the world, and this accounts for their adaptability, responsiveness, and intelligence. In Wetware, Bray offers imaginative, wide-ranging, and perceptive critiques of robotics and complexity theory, as well as many entertaining and telling anecdotes. For the general reader, the practicing scientist, and all others with an interest in the nature of life, this book is an exciting portal to some of biology’s latest discoveries and ideas. “Drawing on the similarities between Pac-Man and an amoeba and efforts to model the human brain, this absorbing read shows that biologists and engineers have a lot to learn from working together.” —Discover magazine “Wetware will get the reader thinking.” —Science magazine
