What is life? :five great ideas in biology /Paul Nurse. - 1st American ed. - New York, NY :W.W. Norton & Company,2021. - 145 p. ;22 cm.

"The renowned Nobel Prize-winning scientist's elegant and concise explanation of the fundamental ideas in biology and their uses today. Hailedby Philip Pullman as "a great communicator" who is also "as distinguished ascientist as there could be," Paul Nurse writes with delight at life'srichness and a sense of the urgent role of biology in our time. With What IsLife? he delivers a brief but powerful work of popular science in the veinof Carlo Rovelli's Seven Brief Lessons in Physics. Nurse takes readers on awondrous journey through five fundamental biological ideas-the Cell, theGene, Evolution by Natural Selection, Life as Chemistry, and Life asInformation-introducing the scientists who made the most important advancesand taking us into his own lab to give us a sense of the thrill ofscientific discovery. In a final chapter, Nurse addresses biology's mostpressing ethical issues (including gene-editing, genetic testing, andgenetically modified crops), and he concludes with a stirring encomium tobiology's role in tackling infectious disease"--
