About this product
Product Information
From the renowned biochemist and author of The Vital Question, an illuminating inquiry into the Krebs cycle and the origins of life. "Nick Lane's exploration of the building blocks that underlie life's big fundamental questions--the origin of life itself, aging, and disease--have shaped my thinking since I first came across his work. He is one of my favorite science writers."--Bill Gates

Reviews
The story in Transformer is not just lively and engaging but filled with stimulating ideas about life's origins and evolution., In this compulsively readable book, Lane takes us on a riveting journey, ranging from the flow of energy to new ways of understanding cancer., [An] indefatigable exploration of the genesis of biology . . . [Lane] beautifully lays out the sheer improbability of our biosphere, explains why life may be exceedingly rare in our universe, and considers death as a process, not simply as an instantaneous end., The writing in the book is so articulate and the unfolding narrative so ambitious that one is carried along helter-skelter... The late Sir Hans would indeed be amazed., This Is Probably the Best Book on Biology (And more Specifically Biochemistry) That I've Ever Read., Transformer is a complex yet accessible, illuminating, and thrilling exploration of the vitality and elemental mysteries of our existence., A thrilling tour of the remarkable stories behind the discoveries of some of life's key metabolic pathways and mechanisms. [Lane] lays bare the human side of science... The book brings to life the chemistry that brings us to life., Nick Lane's marvelously engaging Transformer refocused my astronomer's gaze on the vital chemistry of life on our own planet., One of the most creative of today's biologists ... this is a book filled with big ideas, many of which are bold instances of lateral thinking., In this fascinating book, Nick Lane brings together biology, chemistry, and physics to illuminate the role of energy in bringing matter alive.
