Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters - Matt Ridley
The human genome, the complete set of genes in 23 pairs of chromosomes, is nothing less than an autobiography of our species.
Genome autobiography species 23 chapters pdf creator
Spelled out in a billion three-letter words using the four-letter alphabet of DNA, the genome has been edited, abridged, altered and added to as it has been handed down, generation to generation, over more than three billion years.
This generation is the first to read this extraordinary book, and to gain hitherto unimaginable insights into what it means to be alive, to be human, to be conscious or to be ill. By picking one newly discovered gene from each of the 23 human chromosomes, and telling its story, Matt Ridley recounts the history of our species and its ancestors from the dawn of life to the brink of future medicine.
