Andrew Scott casts a critical eye over the explanations of life's origins and evolution offered by modern science. He discusses the breakthroughs' that have been made, both experimental and theoretical, as well as the many problems that remain unsolved; and he explains in vivid terms the intricacies of the chemicals of life. He also examines the possibilities of life existing elsewhere throughout the universe, and of mankind eventually creating completely novel forms of life. This book would be useful for students of biology and also appeals to a more general readership.
