Evolution, the Logic of Biology

By: John S. Torday,Virender K. Rehan

By focusing on the cellular mechanisms that underlie ontogeny, phylogeny and regeneration of complex physiologic traits, Evolution, the Logic of Biology demonstrates the use of homeostasis, the fundamental principle of physiology and medicine, as the unifying mechanism for evolution as all of biology. The homeostasis principle can be used to understand how environmental stressors have affected physiologic mechanisms to generate condition-specific novelty through cellular mechanisms. Evolution, the Logic of Biology allows the reader to understand the vertebrate life-cycle as an intergenerational continuum in support of effective, on-going environmental adaptation. By understanding the principles of physiology from their fundamental unicellular origins, culminating in modern-day metazoans, the reader as student, researcher or practitioner will be encouraged to think in terms of the prevention of disease, rather than in the treatment of disease as the eradication of symptoms. By tracing the ontogeny and phylogeny of this and other phenotypic homologies, one can perceive and understand how complex physiologic traits have mechanistically evolved from their simpler ancestral and developmental origins as cellular structures and functions, providing a logic of biology for the first time. Evolution, the Logic of Biology will be an invaluable resource for graduate students and researchers studying evolutionary development, medicine and biology, anthropology, comparative and developmental biology, genetics and genomics, and physiology.

Evolutionary Biology

Cell-Cell Communication, and Complex Disease

By: John S. Torday,Virender K. Rehan

An integrative view of the evolution of genetics and the naturalworld Even in this advanced age of genomics, the evolutionary processof unicellular and multicellular organisms is continually indebate. Evolutionary Biology, Cell–Cell Communication, andComplex Disease challenges current wisdom by using physiology topresent an integrative view of the nature, origins, and evolutionof fundamental biological systems. Providing a deeper understanding of the way genes relate to thetraits of living organisms, this book offers useful informationapplying evolutionary biology, functional genomics, and cellcommunication studies to complex disease. Examining the 4.5billion-year evolution process from environment adaptations tocell-cell communication to communication of genetic information forreproduction, Evolutionary Biology hones in on the "why and how" ofevolution by uniquely focusing on the cell as the smallest unit ofbiologic structure and function. Based on empirically derived data rather than associationstudies, Evolutionary Biology covers: A model for forming testable hypotheses in complex diseasestudies The integrating role played by the evolution of metabolism,especially lipid metabolism The evolutionary continuum from development to homeostasis Regeneration and aging mediated by signaling molecules Ambitious and game-changing Evolutionary Biology suggests thatbiology began as a mechanism for reducing energy within the cell,defying the Second Law of Thermodynamics. An ideal text for thoseinterested in forward thinking scientific study, the insightspresented in Evolutionary Biology help practitioners effectivelycomprehend the evolutionary process.

Quantum Mechanics, Cell-Cell Signaling, and Evolution

By: John S. Torday

Quantum Mechanics, Cell-Cell Signaling, and Evolution offers a detailed accounting of the latest research and theorizing on the integration of quantum physics with biological action to produce a novel perspective on evolution. The book advocates for a paradigm shift towards understanding biology and medicine causally as predictive sciences, presenting quantum mechanics and physiology as vertically integrated. The author has taken a unique approach to the question of how and why evolution occurred. The account is based on extensive knowledge of lipid physical chemistry, and its role in the evolution of the lung under the influence of hormonal effects on structure and function. The title arranges lipid biochemistry and biophysics into an integrated explanation, guiding readers from the immersion of lipids in water as the origin of life, to lung surfactant in alveolar homeostasis, and leading to a new understanding of how consciousness interacts with the laws of nature. This volume argues for a novel understanding of evolutionary processes based on fundamental science and positions itself as seeking consilience among research disciplines. Starting from the origins of the cosmos, the author proceeds through nucleosynthesis and Endosymbiosis Theory, to finally describe consciousness in relation to natural law. - Offers a novel account of evolutionary mechanisms integrating quantum mechanics and cell-cell signaling - Presents the latest research and theorizing on the integration of quantum physics with biological action - Grounds theoretical insights in lipid physical chemistry and the evolution of the lung - Details an integrated, causal account of evolution operating across physical and biological domains - Argues for a paradigm shift in the way evolution is understood

A Body of Doctrinal Divinity

By: John Gill

In this work, John Gill argues for the existence and characteristics of the triune God. These arguments are all given from a heavily Calvinist perspective but he uses a lot of scripture to back up his claims. He also argues that the character of God is shown through his work on Earth by the elect and most importantly through Christ. These characteristics then carry on in the final stages of life, when human beings pass away and move on to heaven or hell.

The Killings Inthe Keys

The Prayer Wheel Murders

By: Colonel John J. Koneazny

Frankly, I dont know whether to call this manuscript fact or fiction. I know that what I have been able to check is fact, but this is mainly hearsay, as told to me by the real Harley Grant. I met Harley Grant (of course I have changed his name) in Public Market just as I have had Mike Bender meet him, in the beer isle. The second time I ran into him, I invited him over to the Green Flash our houseboat tied in Losers Lagoon for a drink. Dottie invited him for supper and after supper we sat around drinking Sam Adams. Dottie finally went to bed and we were still batting our gums. It was then that Harley told me this story that he swears is true. It was two in the morning when he finished. When he finished I shook my head in disbelief. I told him that I was going to check on it. He told me that I would find nothing. Big oil had destroyed any trace that it had ever happened. This I took with a grain of salt. I told this tale to a friend, a Lt. Commander in the Coast Guard. He said, Let me check on it, maybe I can find something in one of the old logs. I had almost forgotten about it when he got back to me. Jack, there may be something to that story you told me. I found this entry in the ships log of one of the decommissioned 84 foot cutters. Be on the lookout for a 70 or 80 foot yacht with xs and zs in its name which was last seen in Key West! This rekindled my interest and I went back to Harley and asked him to show me Hidden Cay. He took me down to the gate, but he said that Mike and Lois were on an extended stay in Goa. Yes, there were peafowl on the property! But that is the only verification that I could find, except I did locate Neal Forest and in a drunken stupor he admitted that he did row a couple of Chinks out to a big yacht. In this book I of course invented much of the dialogue and changed all the names. I tried to keep it as realistic as it was when Harley first told it by having Mike Bender tell the story. Further research proved fruitless. I was stonewalled everywhere I went! I even had one threat not to write a book about it. To hell with it, I am going to write it and call it FICTION!
