The Hidden Life of Life: A Walk through the Reaches of Time

Inspired by the evolutionary idea of symbiosis, The Hidden Life of Life explores the commonalities shared by all creatures, from bacteria to humans. This book provides an easy-to-read, big-picture look at the similarities shared by all kind of different life on our planet. It takes the position that paramecia can learn, plants can communicate, and ultimately that people aren’t really as unique or wonderful as we seem to think we are.
