Peregrinations From Physics To Phylogeny: Essays On The Occasion Of Hao Bailin's 80th Birthday

by Kok Khoo Phua, Mo-lin Ge

Overview

'Professor Hao Bailin is one of China's most talented and most versatile theoretical physicists. He has made important contributions to a wide variety of research fields, including biology in which he pioneered a multidimensional method for studying the evolutionary pathways of bacteria. Indeed he calls himself, appreciatively I believe, a guerrilla fighter.'
Chen-Ning Yang, Nobel Laureate
