ISBN10: 1781250375, ISBN13: 9781781250372, [publisher: Profile Books Ltd, London] Softcover Paperback. 'One of the most exciting science writers of our time.' - IndependentWhy is life the way it is? Bacteria evolved into complex life just once in four billion years of life on earth-and all complex life shares many strange properties, from sex to ageing and death. If life evolved on other planets, would it be the same or completely different?In The Vital Question, Nick Lane radically reframes evolutionary history, putting forward a cogent solution to conundrums that have troubled scientists for decades. The answer, he argues, lies in energy: how all life on Earth lives off a voltage with the strength of a bolt of lightning. In unravelling these scientific enigmas, making sense of life's quirks, Lane's explanation provides a solution to life's vital questions: why are we as we are, and why are we here at all?This is ground-breaking science in an accessible form, in the tradition of Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species, Richard Dawkins' The Selfish Gene, and Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs and Steel. A game-changing book on the origins of life, called the most important scientific discovery 'since the Copernican revolution' in The Observer. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. [Stevenage, United Kingdom] [Publication Year: ...
