Oxygen: The Molecule That Made the World by Nick Lane

5.0

Well written and informative. It is quite hard to find good science communicators these days, and although Mr. Lane sometimes has to get quite complex, I find that he always brings it back to a summary that makes it clear to folks of many academic levels how much they know and how much they don't. Which is great, because works that make people think they understand more than they do are often quite troublesome in the current day and age.

Hard to say if the ideas and hypotheses put forward by the book will pan out of course, but the writing is great, and the ideas intriguing.
