Life As We Do Not Know It by Peter Ward
For the past 20 years, Peter Ward has been at the forefront of popular science writing with books such as the influential and controversial Rare Earth. Ward, with his signature blend of eloquence, humour and learned insight, vividly details the latest scientific findings, cutting-edge research and intrepid new theories on the subject of alien life and the possible extraterrestrial origins of life on Earth. In lucid entertaining prose, Peter Ward once again challenges our notions of life on earth (and beyond).
Peter Ward is professor of geological sciences at the University of Washington, Seattle. He is the co-author of Rare Earth and the author of Rivers in Time, The End of Evolution, which was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Award, and On Methuselah's Trail which won the Paleontological Society's Golden Trilobite Award for best popular science book of 1992.
