Мистерията на живота

In “The Mystery of Life”, writer Jan Paul Schutten and illustrator Floor Rieder unleash their sense of humor and let their imagination run wild, all in the service of science. Jan Paul Schutten tells the story of the miracle of life and evolution. What exactly is life? How did it arise? How do living creatures reproduce and why will they all eventually die? What does Jos de Boer from Groningen have in common with sharks? And with the bacteria on his socks?

These are just a few of the many questions the author answers. Flora Rieder's illustrations add to the text in a playful and witty way, so that the young reader won't close the encyclopedia until they've devoured it, along with its covers.
