520 _aThis book is based on an in-depth conversation between Howard Burton and Nick Lane, Professor of Evolutionary Biochemistry at University College London and bestselling author. After an inspiring story of Nick Lane’s career path, this wide-ranging conversation covers his bioenergetic view of early, evolutionary history, the origin of life and how all complex life is composed of a very particular cell type that we all share, and more. This carefully-edited book includes an introduction, The Big Picture, and questions for discussion at the end of each chapter: I. A Long and Winding Road - Nick goes round the houses II. Structuring Energy - Cells, membranes and a counterintuitive mechanism III. Hydrothermal Vents - More than just chemistry IV. Simulational Challenges - Making your own hydrothermal vent V. Synoptic Justifications - Philosophers wanted VI. Becoming Complex - From prokaryotes to eukaryotes VII. Marvellous Mitochondria - Insights from a metabolic worldview VIII. Open Questions - From the origin of life to consciousness About Ideas Roadshow Conversations Series: Presented in an accessible, conversational format, Ideas Roadshow books not only explore frontline academic research featuring world-leading researchers but also reveal the inspirations and personal journeys behind the research.
