It builds on the author’s two earlier monographs which looked at the epistemology of life and the ontogeny of life. Here the emphasis is on the intangibility of life, that the real nature of living systems is conveyed not by their tangible material basis but by their intangible inherent processes. . .Relational biology is the approach that hails ‘function dictates structure’; it is mathematics decoded into biological realizations. Therefore, the work begins with a concise introduction to category theory, equiping the reader with the mathematical metalanguage of relation biology. The book is organized around three parts:. .Part I is a comprehensive study of the most important functor in relational biology, the power set functor. The author lays the s.et-theoretic foundations of the functorial connections in relational biology, exploring relations, mappings, and set-valued mappings. .In Part II, Natural Law receives a new mathematical formulation founded on two axioms: ‘Everything is a set.’ and ‘Every process is a | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Relational Biology; Category Theory; Modeling Relation; Metabolism and Repair; Set-valued Mapping; Decodi | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-65409-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-88021-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-65409-6Series ISSN 2522-039X Series E-ISSN 2522-0403 | issn_series | 2522-039X | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG 2017 |
