What is life? How did we get here? What do we share with every living thing on this planet—from bacteria to trees to humans?
A Brief History of Life: From Genes to Human is a compelling journey through the unseen world that shapes all life: the world of molecules, cells, and genes. Written by a molecular biologist, this book brings together decades of scientific discoveries in a clear, engaging, and story-driven format that’s perfect for curious readers of all backgrounds.
From the discovery of DNA to the rise of genetic engineering and CRISPR, from Darwin’s theory of evolution to cutting-edge technologies like gene therapy and neural control (optogenetics), this book explains how life works at its most fundamental level. It uncovers the invisible biological systems that connect us to every other organism on Earth—and reveals how mastering that knowledge has transformed medicine, biotechnology, and our understanding of what it means to be human.
Whether you're a student, educator, or lifelong learner, this book makes complex biological science accessible, relevant, and deeply fascinating. It’s perfect for fans of Sapiens and A Brief History of Time who are eager to explore the hidden science of life itself.
