Judith Voet’s background in teaching undergraduates at a liberal arts college proved crucial. She ensured that despite the chemical rigor, the narrative remained accessible. The book was not just a reference manual; it was a story—a story of how the chaos of the universe coalesced into the order of the living cell.
