水有什么特别的？为什么它具有它所具有的特性，这些原因与它明显的生物学重要性有什么关系？通过探索水的结构和动力学，从孤立的分子及其相互作用，通过其许多结晶相和所谓的异常液相，它的一些明显不寻常的行为是合理的。还讨论了它与一些相对简单的接口进行交互的方式。作为这种探索的结果，设计了一个可能的分子水平的原因，其生物学的重要性的清单。
What is so special about water? Why does it have the properties it has, and how might these reasons be relevant to its apparent biological importance? By exploring the structure and dynamics of water, from the isolated molecule and its interactions, through its many crystalline phases and to its so-called anomalous liquid phase, some of its apparently unusual behaviour is rationalized. The way in which it interacts with some relatively simple interfaces is also discussed. As a result of this exploration, a checklist of possible molecular-level reasons for its biological importance is devised.
