Iron, Nature's Universal Element: Why People Need Iron and Animals Make Magnets
Sharon Bertsch McGrayne
The authors start with the discovery of iron-rich hot springs on the ocean floor. Was this life's nursery? Other chapters describe why there is iron in our blood and how the body safely cages excess iron. They also examine iron's power over the Earth's oceans, vegetation and populations.
