Description

Book Synopsis
In 1957 two young scientists produced an experiment confirming that DNA replicates as predicted by the double helix structure Watson and Cricks had proposed. This text reconstructs the complex route that led to the experiment and provides an inside view of day-to-day scientific research.

Trade Review
"Holmes has written a remarkable history of one of molecular biology's most significant experiments. His recreation of a seminal time in the development of the field is masterful and detailed, and it is exciting reading for anyone interested in how experimentation is actually done in a molecular biology laboratory." David Baltimore, president, California Institute of Technology
