What is Life?

Erfan Abedi

Schrödinger quite perfectly captures what I think is the essence of being a scientist: curiosity.

I know this was written almost 100 years ago, but the fact that he didn't just stick to studying physics and knew quite a lot about biology and philosophy is very inspiring.

Erwin Schrodinger

"What Is Life?" is Nobel laureate Erwin Schrödinger's exploration of the question which lies at the heart of biology. His essay, "Mind and Matter," investigates what place consciousness occupies in the evolution of life, and what part the state of development of the human mind plays in moral questions. "Autobiographical Sketches" offers a fascinating fragmentary account of his life as a background to his scientific writings.
