Books By A.H. Louie - Author

Aloisius H. Louie is a mathematical biologist, whose research areas have encompassed abstract formulations, mathematical modelling, and computer simulations of various natural and physical phenomena, including the dynamic behaviour of protein molecules, enzyme-substrate recognition, processes of irreversible thermodynamics, human-pollutant interactions, the cell biology of senescence, and electromagnetics.  His premier interest, however, remains the epistemological aspects of mathematical biology.  He is glad to have returned to it in 2005 as an independent scholar with no academic affiliations, after a twenty-year interlude of doing mathematical modelling as a scientist-for-hire.  His approach to the subject is called ‘relational biology’, in keeping with the school pioneered by Nicolas Rashevsky and Robert Rosen.  He has thus far published two books on the subject: More Than Life Itself: A Synthetic Continuation in Relation Biology [ontos 2009] and The Reflection of Life: FunctionalEntailment and Imminence
