Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, a significant contribution to the field of biology, presents a novel theory centered around the concept of functional inertia as a fundamental property of living matter. In contrast to the long-established focus on excitability or affectability as the sole defining characte…ristic of life, the author proposes a second property, functional inertia, which denotes an organism's capacity to resist stimuli and maintain stability. Through a comprehensive analysis of phenomena ranging from latent periods and limits to insusceptibility and rhythms, the book demonstrates how functional inertia underlies vital processes, physiological rhythms, and even consciousness. The author's insights challenge the traditional view of living matter as exclusively responsive to its environment, instead highlighting its inherent capacity for non-correspondence and self-regulation. This book offers a transformative perspective on the nature of life, expanding our understanding of the delicate balance between responsiveness and stability in biological systems. Its innovative theory provides a profound framework for further exploration and deeper comprehension of the intricacies of life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
