The unique premise of LIFE IN DARWIN'S UNIVERSE is that just as the laws of physics and chemistry apply throughout the cosmos, so must Darwin's principles of evolution. Bylinsky's journey through time and space gives us a scientific view of what life might be like on uninhabited planets of the galaxies -- how the evolutionary push of life might respond to different physical requirements. Bylinsky even speculates on what creatures might have dominated Earth had conditions here been somewhat different. "What can be so interesting as the story of life's slow and magnificent development in a complex universe?...With verve and imagination...Bylinsky's telling is successful and timely." --Isaac Asimov
