Even the very description of life is not ideology-free. On the other, it injects readers with a carefully embedded ideology of materialism and naturalism. On the one hand, it provides an excellent narration of scientific discoveries about life.
The book is a perfect example of pure science mixed with a perplexing ideology. Does he have a definite answer? I’m not sure- even after reading his book. However, he is perhaps one of the most qualified given the fact that he has studied nothing but living cells in his lifetime.
Of course, he was neither the first nor the last person who attempted to define life. Paul Nurse, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for his work on the Cell Cycle, decided to write a book to address this age-old question. Even scientists- who have dedicated their whole lives to this question- do not know either. However, we still do not know what life is.
In fact, we are made of trillions of tiny living beings called cells. We, as living beings, are fully immersed in life. What is life? It seems like a very simple question.
