Reading this non-fiction book..is abt chemistry.."stories of the invisible" a guided tour of molecule...and in one of the chapter..there is this question.."what is life?"Haldane ans is :"Life is a pattern of chemical processes. This pattern has special properties. It begets a similar pattern, as a flame does,but it regulates itself as a flame does not. . . So when we have said that life is a pattern of chemical processes, we have said something true and important . . . But to suppose that one can describe life fully on these lines is to attempt to reduce it to mechanism, which I believe to be impossible."
Interesting yea?
