The Determination of a Lifespan
A 400-Year-Old Shark and a 40,000-Year-Old Plant
Human lifespan differs by as much as 30 years across the world due to factors like meals, disease, and genes. This book clarifies these factors and suggests how to live longer. It also surveys animals and plants living for 10,000 years or longer.

An Analysis of the Research on Sugarcane Yellow Leaf
Not a Disease, a Syndrome
For 30 years, sugarcane yellow leaf (SYL) has been known as a viral disease. After analyzing decades of confusing and contradictory research, the author argues it is a physiological syndrome. This book aims to disentangle the issue and show the truth behind the condition.

The God Molecule
Evolution of tRNA and the Genetic Code
Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a molecular fossil that tells the story of the evolution of the genetic code and the origin of life. Analysis of its pre-life sequences provides clear insights into how life began and shows why tRNA is required to generate life on Earth or another planet.

How Life Emerges from Inanimate Matter
From Atoms to a Living Individual
This book describes how life emerges from inanimate matter. It analyzes this transition as it occurs in space, from simple particles to individuals; in time, through biological evolution; and in embryonic development, offering a unique, multi-disciplinary analysis of all three.

Measuring the Evolution Controversy
A Numerical Analysis of Acceptance of Evolution at America's Colleges and Universities
Why do so many people reject evolution? The authors postulate the "incompatibility hypothesis": a fundamental conflict between scientific rationalism and supernatural belief. They test this by examining how education and religiosity impact evolution's acceptance.

How Human Nature Fosters Violence, War and Genocide
An Evolutionary and Psychological Study
Why are we the way we are? This book examines mass violence and genocide, arguing it builds upon a basic human tendency from our evolutionary background to support our own group and kill those considered “others,” often hiding behind designations of religion, race, or ethnicity.

Basic Biology for Born Engineers
Living Mosaics
While the laws of physics rely on calculus, this approach fails for biology. Living things are not continuous; they are discrete and amazingly exact. This book presents a novel view of biology as the science of ‘living mosaics’, made of discrete, yet interacting, ‘tiles’.
