Origin and Evolution of Life

Academician Dobretsov

During the times of total "internetization" one can easily obtain information about anybody by just typing the name in the enquiry field of a search engine.

If a person is famous and distinguished, you will get a lot of useful information, including references from official editions, meeting proceedings and encyclopedia articles… Thus, you can learn a lot about the person and know nothing at the same time. Sometimes it is better to have a heart-to-heart conversation to have first-hand information to understand what hides behind the laconic and inanimate lines of official texts. Today we meet Academician Nikolay Leontievich Dobretsov not as Editor-in-Chief of our magazine, but as a famous Russian geologist, who is also well known as administrator of Russian science

More information on these and other subjects you can find in the printed version of our journal.
