You all ready recommended that book, and I thanked you for that.

I’ve been reading it.

The author’s view is consistent with mine and what j have been saying.

I am also curious. Do you even know who Francis Crick was?

Well, then, I'm delighted to hear that!
By all means, let us know your impressions, responses, etc.
I'm still reading it the second time, hoping to absorb a better grasp on her ideas.

Yes, and curiously, his life-span almost exactly matched my Dad's -- within less than a year at both ends...

I also note that Crick left Cambridge in 1976, and did not study DNA after that, but moved on to neuroscience at the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California.

So Crick was not involved in the amazing advances in DNA analysis over the past ten to twenty years.
Therefore, I think he could not have the final word today on such subjects as abiogenesis or panspermia.
