Soft covered book titled READINGS FROM SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN  LIFE AT THE EDGE. Edited by James Gould and Carol Grant Gould, 1989.

This book is an exciting collection of articles that shows us how life manages to eke out an existence where, by all rights, it shouldn't and helps us to appreciate the roles of energy and the building block elements in the cycles of life. Extraordinarily well written and full of the excitement of discovery, it gives a glimpse at the blind, pragmatic, wonderfully inventive nature of natural selection.

Book is in VG condition. 162 pages are clean and intact, and the binding is tight. It would make a wonderful addition to your life science library!
