What I loved most about this book was the writing style. It read like it was written by the fun college professor or a passionate friend. I think Godfrey-Smith will become one of the few non-fiction authors I follow.

There were times that made me question the age of the audience of the book because it would define what rust is or explain what photosynthesis and the mitochondria is multiple times. It works in talking about the horror/beauty in oxygen, but can be repetative. It did pay off, for example we all know about left-side right-side thinking, but using a picture to describe it made so much more sense.


It's the third installment, however it can be read out of order. Thank you #Netgalley in exchange for an honest review of #LivingOnEarth. 3.5/5 stars. Its approximately 200 pages for a quick read with lots of interesting facts/theories.
