Within a single captivating narrative, John Bonner combines an
intensely personal memoir of scientific progress and an overview of
what we now know about living things. Bonner, a major participant
in the development of biology as an experimental science, draws on
his life-long study of slime molds for an understanding of the life
cycle-the foundation of all biology. In an age of increasing
specialization and fragmentation among subfields of biology, this
is a unique work of reflection and integration. Originally
published in 1993. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
