"Anyone who is not amazed by quantum theory does not understand it."
-Niels Bohr-

Life is the most extraordinary phenomenon in the known universe. But how does it work? Even in the age of cloning and synthetic biology, we are faced with the following fact: so far, no one has been able to create living things from completely inanimate matter. The only way to create life is still life itself. So could we be missing a vital component of the essence of life?

Like Richard Dawkins's book The Gene is Selfish, which completely changed our perspective on evolution, Life at the Quantum Frontier also reshapes our understanding of the dynamics of life. Jim Al-Khalili and Johnjoe McFadden combine their knowledge with unparalleled narrative talent to reveal that the ingredient we overlook is hidden in the world of quantum mechanics, where entities can be in two different places at once, make ghostly connections, and pass through seemingly impenetrable obstacles. . While introducing us to quantum biology, which is developing at an eye-popping pace and is expected to break new ground with its applications, the biggest enigma of all, "What is life?" brings a brand new perspective to the question: Life lives at the quantum limit.
