The recent surge of interest in astrobiology has led to a spate of books in astrobiology - combining astronomy and biology - but in most of these, cometary panspermia is dealt with only cursorily. The present book sets out the case for cometary panspermia in a cogent way, combining evidence from space to science, celestial mechanics, geology and microbiology. It should be an essential part of any university course on astrobiology, and also serves as a reference book textbook for researchers in the field. | Comets And The Origin Of Life by Nalin Chandra Wickramasinghe, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
