Produktbeschreibung

A Big Bang, i.e. a gigantic silent explosion occurred 13.5 billion years ago, with an unsustainable intensity of light and heat thrown in all directions. Light traveled during billions of years and cooled down, with the result that the Universe was getting cold, really cold. However, without cold, no galaxies, no stars and planets would form. A tiny planet formed 4.5 billion years ago, orbiting around a star at a distance just adequate to have water neither boiling nor freezing, although it sometimes came close to that. Heat above 0° centigrade but below 100°C was needed on the surface of the earth for life to blossom but it well seems that it needed in reality 250°C at the bottom of oceans to end up with human beings able to think and reason. Who found out that there was a Big Bang? And how could light and small atoms as hydrogen have evolved toward the noosphere represented by Man? The story is incredibly complex and needs some knowledge in physics and chemistry to be followed, but it is a very interesting story made of many failures and unexpected rare successes, which I expose in this book I.

Autorenporträt

Roland Maes was born in 1935 in Belgium. After acquiring a degree in zoology at the Catholic University of Louvain (Belgium), he studied virology at the Max Planck Institute for Virus Research (Tübingen, Germany) and at the Wistar Institute of Anatomy (Philadelphia, USA). He worked during a year at St Jude Children's Hospital in Memphis, always in virology and thereafter was during four years Research Officer for the Pan American Health Organization, stationed near Rio de Janeiro, where he worked on hoof and mouth disease and interferon. He moved thereafter shortly to Brussels (European Headquarters of Travenol) and then to Strasbourg, where he was active at the Richardson-Merrel Research institute. He resolved to create his own company in Strasbourg, working mainly on the development of diagnostic tools for tuberculosis and on alternative medicine. This occupation put him in close contact with developing countries of the Asian and African continent. R. Maes is the author of numerous scientific publications.
