Lynn Margulis is an ardent supporter of the Gaia hypothesis: the idea that due to the finely balanced interdependence of all life forms, the planet functions as a single, giant cell. She argues that no organism is an island, and that all are linked to each other. Written with tremendous zest and authority The Symbiotic Planet traces the evolution of Earth from the origins of life and sex to the emergence of 'hyperseas' and an eerie future she describes for humanity.

She is best known for her pathbreaking work on the bacterial origins of cell organelles and for her collaboration with James Lovelock on Gaia theory.

Schwartz); and (with Dorian Sagan) The Origins of Sex, The Garden of Microbial Delights, What is Life?, What is Sex?, and Slanted Truths: Essays on Gaia, Symbiosis and Evolution.
