nick lane – An Autonomous Agent / exploring the noosphere Sun, 15 Oct 2017 02:47:50 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.2.3 Oxygen: The Molecule that Made the World – Nick Lane /2015/03/oxygen-the-molecule-that-made-the-world-nick-lane/ /2015/03/oxygen-the-molecule-that-made-the-world-nick-lane/#disqus_thread Wed, 25 Mar 2015 16:48:53 +0000 https://www.anautonomousagent.com/?p=1023 Incredibly brilliant, well written, and thought-provoking; you will never take another breath of air without appreciating the amazing history of air itself. In Oxygen: The Molecule that Made the World, Nick Lane presents many convincing arguments about the development of early life and the geological history of Earth — all based on Oxygen. Lane’s book is one of the best I have read about the ancient history of Earth and is a great resource to learn about anti-oxidants, LUCA, and the role of oxygen in biology. He has written other books which I hope to read.

It would be interesting to study the effects of meditation on oxygen respiration in the human body. Does anyone know of any such studies?
