Life persists in some of Earth's harshest environments, from boiling springs to polar ice and deep-sea vents. Studying these resilient organisms provides insight into the adaptability and limits of life. Life in Extreme Environments investigates extremophiles and their survival mechanisms in high-pressure, high-salinity, and radiation-rich conditions. The book explores biochemical adaptations, genetic resilience, and potential applications in biotechnology and astrobiology. It also highlights the significance of extremophiles in understanding the origins and evolution of life. Combining molecular biology with ecological and planetary perspectives, it offers a fascinating look into life's remarkable ability to thrive beyond conventional boundaries.
