This easy-to-understand basic explanation of a handful of biological rules describes the regulation of life. Examples range from the microscopic to large mammals and the stories of their discovery. These rules also relate how changes to the environment can disrupt or restore biological balance. Patrick Lawlor reads the work in a manner that mimics the easy, flowing style of the print work. It is delivered in sections that move fluidly from one to another so that it is amenable to casual listening; however, it would be better appreciated if one were to listen consecutively over a few days.
VERDICT Highly recommended to anyone seeking a basic understanding of how biological groups are regulated and interact.
