Synopsis

Combining bold graphics with easy-to-understand text, this is the perfect introduction to the blueprint of life for those who are short on time but hungry for knowledge.

Covering a broad range of fields from the cell biology of genes and DNA to cutting-edge gene-editing technologies like CRISPR, Simply Genetics demystifies the complexities of genetic code, its role in the evolution of species, and how it might reshape humanity and the world we live in.

Explaining individual aspects of genetics more clearly than ever before, the book outlines the molecular science behind crucial discoveries in the field. It also profiles revolutionary applications in agriculture and health, such as stem cell therapy, and explores the groundbreaking science of cloning and even resurrecting extinct species.
