Abiogenesis: Part 1 The Essential Chemistry - Paperback

by George Edward Parris (Author)

This book (Part 1) examines the establishment of the primordial earth especially the atmosphere and crust. My conclusions differ somewhat from the starting point used in the Urey-Miller experiments and assumptions about abiogenesis that follow. I present what I think are the important reactions leading up to the establishment of rudimentary cells. In subsequent discussions (Part 2) I hope to cover the RNA world, transition to DNA, and evolution up to photosynthesis.
