Nick Lane wrote some amazing popular science books on the history of mitochondria;
- Power, Sex, Suicide for a general overview and history of mitochondria (did you know that Lynn Margulis, main proponent of the endosymbiont theory, was once married to Carl Sagan?!?)
- The Vital Question on restraints on life due to the biochemistry of mitochondria
Both highly, highly recommended.
