How does one DNA molecule influence your fears, habits, and ambitions? Why were mitochondria once independent organisms, and today work inside our cells? And is it true that bacteria can stealthily change the rules of the game for all humanity?
Biology is not just a science of life. It is a way to understand how you yourself are structured.
In this book, evolution unfolds as an engaging story with unexpected twists, neurobiology explains why the brain sometimes "plays against us," and genetic engineering shows how humans learn to change the very foundation of life. Complex concepts are presented in simple language, without overload of terms and boring diagrams.
This is a journey through the living system of which you are a part, with clear explanations, vivid examples, and new perspectives on familiar things. Away with school jitters - let's dissect reality with the scalpel of understanding.
