They're very good if we recognize that life is the result of chemical evolution. I recommend the first two-thirds of Life beyond Earth : the intelligent earthling's guide to life in the universe(Feinberg and Shapiro). It was published in 1980 but the chemistry discussed is timeless and very understandable.

No matter how chemicals mix you can't get life from non life. A rock can't just sprout fins and start swimming.
