Cairns's writing is a fine example of how science can be presented to the general reader in an extremely scholarly way, and why writing of this kind can be of equal interest to fellow scientists, reflecting as it does a remarkable imagination and intellect... [A] reflective and thoughtful account... --Sir David Weatherall, The Times Higher Education Supplement [Cairns's] lucid exposition shows how experiments, observations, and calculations support some of the grand conclusions of modern biology.
