Synopsis:
It is generally though that biology is not as ‘hard’ as a science as physics or mathematics. Biology is more descriptive than analytical. This book challanges that common notion. It also aims to help motivate readers to stop considering biology as merely a memorization program. It illustrates the logical and philosophical frameworks on which modern biological sciences are built, but mostly omitted or kept implicit by mainstream education system. Hopefully, this will encourage readers to grasp the essence of biology as a fun and challenging tool to solve the problems of the world around them.
