| 520 | _aWalker (contributing editor, ), who has a doctorate in natural sciences from Cambridge U., UK, has written a lively account of Harvard geologist Paul Hoffman's theories of the origins of life on earth that he believes followed its complete freezing over. Writing for the popular reader, Walker explains the geology in lay terms, and it is the details of Hoffman's travels to remote and often frozen areas that move the narrative. | ||
