In The Lives of a Cell, Dr. Lewis Thomas opens up to the listener a universe of knowledge and perception that is perhaps not wholly unfamiliar to the research scientist; but the world he explores is also one of men and women, of complex interrelationships, old ironies, peculiar powers, and intricate languages that give identity to the alienated and direction to the dependent. This remarkable work offers a subtle, bold vision of humankind and the world around us - a sense of what gives life - from a writer who seems to draw grace and strength from the very substance of his subject.

Oldy but goody

Mildly dated but still pretty interesting and relevant. He really goes off on tangents in the last few chapter, especially on the micro minutia of language derivations, which don't have much to do with "lives of a cell". When he sticks to biology and philosophy of biology, much better.
