Dr Mahlon Hoagland knows the story well. His own discoveries on how cells make proteins came about as his friends and fellow explorers Francis Crick, James Watson, and Jacques Monod made their great breakthroughs. Making the complex accessible is Dr Hoagland's forte, but he does more than explain the key experiments that unlocked DNA's mysteries. He gets inside the minds of those who performed them and actually describes the pathways of scientific reasoning. *** Quantity Available: 1. Category: Science & Technology; ISBN: 0395305101.
