When I first heard that the third series of Professor Brian Cox's "Wonders" series would be titled Wonder of Life, I found myself conflicted. Naturally I was excited at the prospect of a new series, Wonders of the Solar System and Wonders of The Universe have been some of the best documentaries I have ever seen. However there was something that troubled me. Cox is a physicist; not a biologist, zoologist, botanist or anything of the sort, a physicist. What qualifies him to teach me about life?
