Sommario/riassunto

Information processing and information flow occur in the course of anorganism's development and throughout its lifespan. Organisms do notexist in isolation, but interact with each other constantly within acomplex ecosystem. The relationships between organisms, such as thosebetween prey or predator, host and parasite, and between matingpartners, are complex and multidimensional.
