Features: The published Chinese version Physics of Life Evolution is an important academic work in the field of theoretical biology. The author, combining the academic achievements from years of dedicated research in life sciences, presents and discusses a series of major issues in life evolution from a physics perspective and methodology, such as the origin and evolution of biological molecular chirality, the origin and evolution of the genetic code, the evolution of nucleic acid and protein sequences, and related information studies. This book (English version) will be based on the Chinese version, with a new chapter added titled "Sequence—Structure—Function," explaining several pathways from structure to function. At the same time, the author has appropriately updated the content of the Chinese version in light of the latest developments in this field internationally.
