I had expected something rather different; I'm not sure exactly what. In the end, I was not disappointed at all. It certainly brought me up to speed with current thinking. Particularly the discussion about the transition from 'non-life' to 'life', although it was not called that. The progress on dismantling the heretofore 'irreducible complexity' of the cell and cell processes was edifying. Still a way to go, though.
