THE ZOOLOGISTS GUIDE TO THE GALAXY - ARIK KERSH...

A Times Sunday Times Book of the Year     DISCOVER HOW LIFE REALLY WORKS - ON EARTH AND IN
SPACE     'A wonderfully insightful sidelong look at Earthly biology' Richard Dawkins   'Crawls
with curious facts' Sunday Times   _________________________   We are unprepared for the
greatest discovery of modern science. Scientists are confident that there is alien life across
the universe yet we have not moved beyond our perception of 'aliens' as Hollywood stereotypes.
The time has come to abandon our fixation on alien monsters and place our expectations on solid
scientific footing.  Using his own expert understanding of life on Earth and Darwin's theory of
evolution - which applies throughout the universe - Cambridge zoologist Dr Arik Kershenbaum
explains what alien life must be like. This is the story of how life really works  on Earth and
in space.  _________________________    'An entertaining  eye-opening and  above all  a hopeful
view of what - or who - might be out there in the cosmos' Philip Ball  author of Nature's
Patterns    'A fascinating insight into the deepest of questions: what might an alien actually
look like' Lewis Dartnell  author of Origins    'If you don't want to be surprised by
extraterrestrial life  look no further than this lively overview of the laws of evolution that
have produced life on earth' Frans de Waal  author of Mama's Last Hug
