Klappentext zu „PLAUSIBILITY OF LIFE “
Offering daring new ideas about evolution, two highly respected biologists here tackle the central, unresolved question in the field--how have living organisms on Earth developed with such astounding variety and complexity? Marc Kirschner and John Gerhart draw on cutting-edge biological and medical research to provide an original solution to this longstanding puzzle. "In this terrific new book, molecular systems meet evolution. The result is a wealth of stimulating ideas set among clear explanations drawn from a revelatory decade in biology."--Andrew H. Knoll, author of "Life on a Young Planet"
"Thought-provoking and lucidly written. . . . "The Plausibility of Life" will help readers understand not just the plausibility of evolution, but its remarkable, inventive powers." --Sean Carroll, author of "Endless Forms Most Beautiful: The New Science of Evo Devo "
"Remarkably lucid and comprehensive, this new theoretical synthesis will . . . shift the grounds for debate in the controversy surrounding organic evolution."--"Booklist" (starred review)
