Life: A short autobiography of this living world by Hugh McCarthy (9 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

What is life? How did life start? Are we alone in the universe? What are we? Is this all there is? Life is a story about biology - told using the most basic toolsets from the disciplines of chemistry, astronomy, physics, and philosophy. The storyteller tells a tale under the dancing lamplight of fascination and wonder about how diversity is not only the fuel for life, but for the study and preservation of life as well. Above all things, though, Life intends to pique your interest, kindle the fire of curiosity within you, and start you on a trip of discovery - and complicity in our mission to protect this living world.
