“The Dawn of Life” by J.H. Rush

DawnofLife

KIRKUS REVIEW

This is a study of life — its beginnings, its essential substances, its chemistry — life on the earth and its possibility in the universe. What distinguishes life from the non-living, what are the theories advanced for the origin of the earth, what was the state of the earth before life began — these are among the questions examined. The contributions of the men of science are compared and knowledge to date is summarized always with the thought that conclusions must be tentative and dogma is folly. Although non-academic, this effort is not for the beginner.
