As far as I understood he doesn't state that life cannot be explained by physics. But that it might be more productive to choose a more high level view.

Makes sense. If a set of physical laws allows life at all, life will maintain its own set of rules (related to reproduction, goal-directed behavior and so on) regardless of low level "implementation details" that are dependent on particulars of the physical laws.

"The Matter with Things" by Iain McGilchrist has the same effect. Highly recommend it.
