I used to think that the origin of life was this magical rare event. But then you read books like, for example, Nick Lane, "The Vital Question", "Life Ascending", et cetera. And he really gets in, he really makes you believe that this is not that rare. [...] I do feel like the story in these books, like Nick Lane's books and so on, sort of makes sense and it makes sense how life arose on earth uniquely. And yeah, I don't need to reach for more exotic explanations right now.View all 3 sources
