Book Description:
|
This is the first comprehensive, beginning-level book on the emergent science of astrobiology. It encompasses all aspects associated with this field and is based on material delivered at several summer schools at the graduate level. This volume gathers another set of lectures covering diverse topics. The contributions are held together by the common goal to understand better the origin of life, its evolution and possible existence outside the Earth's realm.
