Ever asked for the (molecular) meaning of Life? This book provides answers to some of the central questions of Life. And it creates an appetite for more. What is it that holds the world together in its innermost core? Although the book comes across as a textbook, it explains high-level biochemical concepts paired with everyday graphics, always. Humor, thought-provoking questions, and memorable moments enable low-barrier learning.
Jonathan Wolf Mueller teaches at the University of Birmingham in England. The protein biochemist researches the regulation of steroid hormones through sulfation. Jon is highly involved in the field of student-centered teaching and science communication.

...an exciting book! Your book seems to be wild, but in a good way!
Prof. Simon Hammann, Stuttgart, Germany
A beautiful and exceptional book, indeed. Your approach certainly is unique.
Prof. Peter Bayer, Essen, Germany
A fabulous book! A humorous, visual, and very personal account of biochemistry. Many helpful analogies make the matter really catchy, and all the side stories repel boredom very effectively. Several passages really made me smile. Still, the book delivers the basics of biochemistry in a serious way. Highly commendable.
Hanna Alpermann, biochemistry student, Koblenz, Germany
A refreshing and adorable textbook: enjoyable to read, quickly to understand, and the many comparisons make it easier to remember, creating lasting learning pleasure!
Prof. Achim Gruber, Berlin, Germany
This book emanates a certain iridescence, not even starting to be taking the many pictures into account.
Prof. Joachim Rassow, Bochum, Germany
This is total joy for me, as I could resonate so well with your style. At times, your writing reminds me of Terry Pratchett. [ ] A biochemistry book that is fun to read, finally.
Dr. Martin Reich, Berlin, Germany
Your book is wonderful, [ ] first very funny, but then also witty and interesting
