Recent advances suggest that the concept of information might hold the key to unravelling the mystery of life's origins. This book provides fresh insights from experts in philosophy, biology, chemistry, physics, and cognitive and social sciences to provide a unique cross-disciplinary perspective on the problem. It will be of interest to students and researchers in these fields.
