The Life Code trilogy is a popular science series on life sciences, designed as an accessible entry point for lay readers new to genetics.
《生命密碼》三部曲是生命科學範疇的科普通識讀物，是零基礎大眾讀者接近基因科學的入門科普之作。
Life Code 1: Genetic Secrets of Evolution is devoted to the evolutionary history of life on Earth and the enigma of biodiversity. Commencing with the origins of terrestrial life, the volume examines the evolution of the human brain, alongside the genetic mechanisms and evolutionary narratives that underpin the diversity of flora and fauna.
Among the questions it addresses: Why did the ginkgo-a living fossil-survive the atomic bomb? What genomic transformations enabled pandas to specialize in bamboo feeding? What genetic factors confer upon elephants an unusually low cancer incidence? And how did plants, in a sense, domesticate humans? Behind the multitude of known and yet-to-be-discovered life forms that inhabit our planet lie profound genetic secrets.
《生命密碼1--萬物演化的基因秘密》聚焦於地球生命的演化歷程和生物多樣性的奧秘。書中從地球生命的歷史講起，探討人腦演化、動植物背後的基因原理和演化故事。
核彈為什麼炸不死活化石銀杏，熊貓經歷了怎樣的基因演變因而食竹為生，大象不容易患癌症的基因秘訣是什麼，植物又是如何馴服了人類......今天眾多已知和未知的豐富多彩的生命形式，其背後都有基因的秘密。
