The Origin and Early Evolution of Life


Add your own review!

Overview

How life began remains perhaps the most fascinating unresolved scientific problem facing us today. This book provides a broad academic overview (and therefore a useful summary) of our current understanding of the origin and early evolution of life. Drawing on evidence from biology, chemistry and geology, it emphasises limitations in our understanding and takes a critical attitude towards pseudo-scientific approaches.
