DORION SAGAN—coauthor of Microcosmos and What
Is Life? Science writer to New York Times, Natural History,and Wired.
“Into the Cool is a dazzling exposition of an idea: that lifeis fundamentally not a noun, or a thing, but a verb.Building upon the beautiful subtleties of the Second Lawof Thermodynamics, Eric Schneider and Dorion Sagantake us on a tour de force through biology, touching uponthe origin of life, sex, evolution, ecology, and eveneconomics. Along the way, they dethrone the idea thatthe gene is the central actor in the drama of life and putthe focus properly back on the plot—the organized flowsof matter and energy that make life what it is. This bookis destined to be a classic.”
—J. SCOTT TURNERPhysiologist, author of The Extended Organism
The what , why and how of life always intrigued humanrace. Scientists, philosophers and theologians all have
tried to answer these questions in their own way. In this

dysfunction. Thus, the knowledge of various organsystems has been expanded covering their normalfunction, ailments and dysfunction. A chapter on Eyeexplains molecular basis of cataract and glaucomaemphasizing the role of stem cells in restoring vision.
A section on Liver and Biliary System elaborates onphysiology and dysfunction including fatty liver and itsimplications, and hepatitis viruses.
The knowledge of Human Genetics and Biochemical Basisof Inheritance has been appropriately expanded to reflectthe latest advancements in various domains. Besides DNAfingerprinting for identity establishment, the sectiondiscusses epigenetics, micro-RNA and siRNA includingtheir role in gene expression, chromatin modification and
its association with human diseases, and geneticengineering. It also explores emerging areas such assynthetic biology and bioterrorism.
Due emphasis has been given to the section on CellReplication and Cancer. Role of Probiotics adds value tothe book. Besides, an entire section has been devoted tomale and female reproductive system, fertilization,implantation, pregnancy, and lactation. Immunology,including vaccines and immunization, has been given dueattention with latest updates in this fast growing area.
Modern medicine, despite of its stupendous advancescannot provide cure for all ailments. Thus, the new editionprovides knowledge of alternative medicine systems—Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Unani and Herbal Medicine.
