The author builds on his research with the life cycle to explain to non-specialists the principles behind the drama of the living world. He recounts a number of insightful stories about the achievements and eccentricities of biological scientists.
Within a single captivating narrative, John Bonner combines an intensely personal memoir of scientific progress and an overview of what we now know about living things. Bonner, a major participant in the development of biology as an experimental science, draws on his life-long study of slime molds for an understanding of the life cycle-the foundation of all biology. In an age of increasing specialization and fragmentation among subfields of biology, this is a unique work of reflection and integration.
Originally published in 1993.
