Infos

This book, by one of the world's leading biological scientists, is a much needed, simple exposition of the complex subject of genetic engineering and related technologies. It describes in terms comprehensible to the scientific layman the fundamentals of molecular genetics and the principles of genetic engineering. The ways in which gene transfer has revolutionized medical science, and the potential for use in areas such as agriculture, the mining industry and waste disposal are discussed. Sufficient detail is given for the general reader to reach his own conclusions on the merits of this new technology, in relation to the hazards conjectured in the press, without being submerged in a sea of technical jargon.
