Ever wonder how scientists think the first life form came about? This book describes the supposed idea and then shows how it is impossible. It does so in a way that can be understood by a high school graduate or a beginning college student.
If you can imagine that you are a pig farmer, you can understand what an enzyme is. Or by pretending to create the shape of a VW beetle car with a child's duplos, you will understand how enzymes work, why they are important, and what a mutation is. Or if you have straightened up a child's playroom, you can gain insight into how chemistry works. These illustrations are used throughout this book.
With this understanding, you can intelligently follow as this book quickly explains how the first life form is thought to be produced in the earth's ocean. Then the author proceeds to show how this explanation cannot be correct. The author, a PhD biochemist, accomplishes this using these three scientific explanations: (1) the earth lacks sufficient raw material for the job, (2) chemical methods are not up to the task, and (3) even the often-assumed 4.5-billion-year lifespan of the earth is clearly too short to complete the job by the accidental procedures proposed.
The author has his own explanation for how life began but deliberately refuses to divulge it. Instead, he leaves you to make your own conclusion. He wants to educate you enough to think these thoughts for yourself but wants the book to be strictly science that is understandable.
