Biological development, how organisms acquire their form, is one of
the great frontiers in science. While a vast knowledge of the
molecules involved in development has been gained in recent
decades, big questions remain on the molecular organization and
physics that shape cells, tissues and organisms. Physical
scientists and biologists traditionally have very different
backgrounds and perspectives, yet some of the fundamental questions
in developmental biology will only be answered by combining
expertise from a range of disciplines. This book is a personal
account by Professor Lionel Harrison of an interdisciplinary
approach to studying biological pattern formation. It articulates
the power of studying dynamics in development: that to understand
how an organism is made we must not only know the structure of its
molecules; we must also understand how they interact and how fast
they do so.
