Synopsis

Written for the general public, this book is a wonderful blend of physiology, nutrition, biochemistry, biology, genetics, viruses, evolution, chemistry--what we need to know as informed citizens. The topics are presented in a timely and informal style while maintaining depth to promote understanding. A basic understanding of life sciences helps us cope with new developments, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. We also need to have some depth of knowledge to understand the new scientific advances and ethical dilemmas we face, as in our capacity to edit genes. Topics also include caloric requirements, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and dietary advice, all integrated in an easy-to understand book.
