The Emergence of Life on Earth: A Historical and Scientific Overview

Editorial Reviews
Michael Ruse, author of Mystery of Mysteries: Is Evolution a Social Construction?
"Essential reading for people in disciplines ranging from philosophy to biology. It is simple the best general book that I know on the question of the origin of life." -

Woodruff Sullivan, University of Washington
"Fry has fashioned a masterful account of the history, philosophy, and science of the origin of life and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Her story weaves profound Western ideas of who we are and where we came from, from Aristotle to Gould, from Kant to NASA."
