In-Depth General Biology/Foreword
We are all alive. We all breathe, eat, move, react, grow, reproduce and die. And that's something that extends to all living things on Earth and not only us, humans. Life extends everywhere, and some lifeforms are so small we can't even see them without a microscope aid. Life is a hard concept to define, no doubts about it. But life is something so aweinspiring and mesmerizing that pushes us to study every aspect of it and examine all its facets, ranging from the smallest virus of all, the most complex chemical reactions in cells and the transformation of species through space and time, to the interactions of living matter and energy, and the biggest of all trees.
The aim of this book is to provide a comprehensive walkthrough of biology, the aptly named "science of life," through its current understanding, debates, and wonders. Whether it's used as a textbook for an introductory biology course, as a self-study guide, or simply for the joy of learning more about the complexity and beauty of life's processes, "In-Depth General Biology" offers an introduction to the principles and phenomena that govern the living world. We will delve into the chemical reactions that occur every second within our cells and the interactions between atoms. We'll explore how macromolecules interact to sustain life and comprehend the cellular organization of living beings. The transmission of genetic information, evolution through space and time, the relationships between organisms and their environments, and the diversity of life, aided by the study of form and function, will collectively reveal the grand panorama of life in all its glory.
The book is interconnected, so, you can explore all you want whenever you desire to do so. This will also give you a fresh glance into new perspectives of life. Good voyage in the beautiful study of life!
