I can think of virtually no better book for introducing children or biology-impaired adults to the wonders of the machinery of life, from the molecular to the macroevolutionary. Wonderfully written, delightfully illustrated, and sure to engage and educate. A delightful and successful cross between Larry Gonick's classic Cartoon Guides and Cartoon Historys (but less flip) and David Macaulay's many masterful books on the way things work (but more comprehensive). Highly Recommended.

James D. Watson, co-discoverer of DNA
...intelligently and charmingly strips away the veil of ignorance that too long has separated the general public from the molecules that make possible life and its evolution into the grandeur of today's multitudinous life forms. (Editor's note: spoken like a true Nobel Laureate, honorable Dr. Watson!)
