How Life Works: A User’s Guide to the New Biology

Speaker: Philip Ball
ex. Editor of Nature

Biology is undergoing a quiet but profound transformation. Several aspects of the standard picture of how life works, the idea of the genome as a blueprint, of genes as instructions for building an organism, of proteins as precisely tailored molecular machines, of cells as entities with fixed identities, and more have been exposed as incomplete, misleading, or wrong.

In How Life Works, Philip Ball explores the new biology, revealing life to be a far richer, more ingenious affair than we had guessed.
