The code of life

all about genes DNA genetic engineering and why you are the way you are
Carla Häfner ; Mieke Scheier
Book - 2024

"This book explains genetic theory, what genes are, why DNA plays an important role and what all these insights have to do with a curious monk. An exciting journey through the history of science, present-day genetic research and engineering and right through to the question of identity--because who would have thought how much of our personality is defined by our genes and how interesting genes can be?"--
