What is life? Natural Sciences 4 will have you grappling with this enormous
question on the atomic and subatomic levels, and in searching for an answer
you will come to an understanding of modern quantum physics. You will
examine the complexity of DNA and RNA and the causal relationship of
those substances to the laws of genetics first uncovered in Natural Sciences 2.
By considering evolutionary theory on both the microscopic (molecular
evolution) and the macroscopic (the universe as a whole) level, you will
prepare yourself to end the course by extending biological inquiry to the
levels of knowledge and human interaction. Readings include texts by
Werner Heisenberg, Albert Einstein, J. Robert Oppenheimer, Erwin
Schrodinger, Francis Crick, Richard Feynmann, Lynn Margulis, and
François Jacob and Jacques Monod
