This is a study on the life of Abel from Genesis, the first book of the Bible. Many know that his offering to the Lord was preferred over his brother, Cain's. However, readers fail to wonder about Abel beyond his murder, beyond the seven verses that tell of his existence. This book takes readers into the detailed life and thoughts of Abel, the Second Son of Man.

One of the great unsolved problems of science and also physics is the prediction of the three dimensional structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence: the folding problem. It may be stated that the deep connection existing between physics and protein folding is not so much, or in any case not only, through physical methods (experimental: X–rays, NMR, etc, or theoretical: statistical mechanics, spin glasses, etc), but through physical concepts. In fact, protein folding can be viewed as an emergent property not contained neither in the atoms forming the protein nor in the forces acting among them, in a similar way as superconductivity emerges as an unexpected coherent phenomenon taki...
