Klappentext zu „From Suns to Life: A Chronological Approach to the History of Life on Earth “
This review gathers astronomers, geologists, biologists, and chemists around a common question: how did life emerge on Earth?

Discussion covers the formation of the solar system; the building of a habitable planet; prebiotic chemistry, biochemistry, and the emergence of life; the early Earth environment, and much more.
