Overview
From an award-winning expert on DNA, discover the myth-busting book that opens a dazzling window into the world of modern genetics.
Fascinating, compassionate, and entirely captivating, The Secrets of Our DNA is the essential book that explains how genetics has changed and transformed the world around us.
DNA has become vital to our food safety, to the protection of threatened wildlife, and to resolving questions of history and archaeology, ancestry and even, for some, identity.
Now Britain’s preeminent authority on DNA and genetic research, Turi King takes us through fascinating true stories—from mistaken dinosaur DNA and the O. J. Simpson trial to Dolly the sheep and Angelina Jolie’s BRCA1 gene—to reveal the fascinating ways in which DNA has solved mysteries and shaped our world today.
King shows us how we are all interconnected and why we must all benefit from this exciting and rapidly evolving science. She also reminds us that, while our DNA can yield information about genetic predisposition to disease and other conditions, it need not be our destiny. And, perhaps most importantly, she shows us why should all be a part of the discussion as to how new genetic discoveries are utilized for the benefit of all life on earth.
