For two billion years, bacteria continually evolved without ever changing their basic form. Then single-celled organisms made the jump into complex life.

Building on the pillars of evolutionary theory, Lane’s hypothesis draws on cutting-edge research into the link between energy and genes to suggest a novel account of cellular evolution and large-scale life as we know it.
