Cells, kingdoms, behaviour, evolution – biology covers the full sweep of life on Earth, and this is exactly the world Professor Robert Winston invites readers into. The ever-dynamic Professor Robert Winston takes readers of all ages on a journey through life on Earth, exploring how organisms live and survive on our very own “Goldilocks planet”. All About Biology works through every key topic, from cells and the six kingdoms of life – eubacteria, archaeobacteria, protists, fungi, plants, and animals – to anatomy, behaviour, feeding, evolution, migration, photosynthesis, and reproduction. Along the way, readers can join discussions about whether humans really are the ultimate animals, which life form is the weirdest of them all, and whether alien life might exist elsewhere in the Universe. Presented in a colourful, entertaining, and easy-to-understand way, this children’s book will knock spots off any school textbook – there’s no need to search the Universe for signs of life when it’s all right here.
