Life Cycles: Reflections of an Evolutionary Biologist (Princeton Legacy Library, 1769)

Princeton, New Jersey: Princeton University Press, 1993. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 5x0x8. First edition. Top edge foxed. 1993 Hard Cover. xii, 209 pp. Within a single captivating narrative, John Bonner combines an intensely personal memoir of scientific progress and an overview of what we now know about living things. Bonner, a major participant in the development of biology as an experimental science, draws on his life-long study of slime molds for an understanding of the life cycle-the foundation of all biology. In an age of increasing specialization and fragmentation among subfields of biology, this is a unique work of reflection and integration.
