Overview
Written in an easily understandable way, this text makes a very interesting and entertaining read
The authors, both biophysicists, depict how changes in the earth's atmosphere have been interrelated with the origin of life and delineate the important implications for human health and humanity's future
This book evolved from the authors long-standing interests in proteins and oxygen transport, which lead to the much deeper question as to how oxygen utilization were related to living organisms
