Eating the Sun by Oliver Morton

From acclaimed science journalist Oliver Morton comes Eating the Sun, a fascinating, lively, profound look at photosynthesis, nature's greatest miracle. From the physics, chemistry, and cellular biology that make photosynthesis possible, to the quirky and competitive scientists who first discovered the beautifully honed mechanisms of photosynthesis, to the modern energy crisis we face today, Eating the Sun offers a complete biography of the earth through the lens of this common but crucial process.

Oliver Morton is the Economist's briefings editor, and his work has also featured in the New Yorker and other media. Eating the Sun: How Plants Fuel the Earth is his book.
