Astrobiology is an expanding, interdisciplinary field investigating
the origin, evolution and future of life in the universe. Tackling
many of the foundational debates of the subject, from discussions
of cosmological evolution to detailed reviews of common concepts
such as the 'Rare Earth' hypothesis, this volume is the first
systematic survey of the philosophical aspects and conundrums in
the study of cosmic life. The author's exploration of the
increasing number of cross-over problems highlights the
relationship between astrobiology and cosmology and presents some
of the challenges of multidisciplinary study. Modern physical
theories dealing with the multiverse add a further dimension to the
debate. With a selection of beautifully presented illustrations and
a strong emphasis on constructing a unified methodology across
disciplines, this book will appeal to graduate students and
specialists who seek to rectify the fragmented nature of current
astrobiological endeavour, as well as curious astrophysicists,
biologists and SETI enthusiasts.
