Who is Lane's audience? Unfortunately, not me. This book takes a new spin on the evolution of life and focuses the discussion on how organisms have grown to use energy in different (although often strikingly similar!) ways. However, the technical nuances were more than what I was interested in. It read more like a textbook than a best seller, yet I believe Lane was targeting the later.
