Power, Sex, Suicide: Mitochondria and the meaning of life - Oxford Landmark Science 2 Revised edition
Lane, Nick (Professor of Evolutionary Biochemistry, University College London)
Mitochondria are tiny structures within all our cells, believed to have once evolved from bacteria living independent lives. Drawing on cutting edge research, this book explores the fundamental role they play in some of the biggest themes in biology: evolution, the origin of the sexes, in growth, ageing, disease, and in death.
