Inhaltsangabe
The assumption that life originated on Earth like some virus like form, and simply evolved by natural selection into the diversity of forms known to have existed, is as unenlightened and Earth-centred as ancient astrology. It is exactly this stringent focus on the Earth as centre-of-the-Universe that is endangering the entire planet. From this controversial standpoint,the famous and respected partnership of Fred Hoyle and Chandra Wickramasinghe examines how it is overwhelmingly, likely that life originated outside the solar system. Using virological and epidemiological evidence to support their theory, the authors also assert that life-forms from space are constantly arriving to mingle with our own biosphere.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Sir Fred Hoyle (1915-2001) Sir Fred Hoyle was a famous English astronomer noted primarily for the theory of stellar nucleosynthesis and his often controversial stances on other scientific matters-in particular his rejection of the "Big Bang" theory, a term coined by him on BBC radio. He has authored hundreds of technical articles, as well as textbooks, popular accounts of science and two autobiographies. In addition to his work as an astronomer, Hoyle was a writer of science fiction, including a number of books co-written with his son Geoffrey Hoyle. Hoyle spent most of his working life at the Institute of Astronomy at Cambridge and served as its director for a number of years. He was knighted in 1972 and died in Bournemouth, England, after a series of strokes.
