Description

"Introduction to Molecular Biophysics builds the modern theoretical foundation needed to understand life processes from a physical point of view. The authors use a combination of biological information and physical models and theories to provide a rigorous description of biological structures. They offer a guided tour through the interlocking hierarchies of living systems, starting from the smallest building blocks of life and ending with a panoramic view of the evolving landscape of life and living forms. The book is richly illustrated and includes numerous examples, references, and experimental tools that make it valuable as both a reference work and textbook."--Jacket.

First Sentence

Planet Earth was formed about 4.6 billion years ago as a result of accretions (inelastic collisions and agglomerations) of larger and larger rocky fragments formed gradually from the dust component of the gaseous dusty cloud that was the original matter of the Solar System.
