Description: Molecular Biology is the story of the molecules of life their relationships and how these interactions are controlled. It is an expanding field in life sciences and its applications are wide and growing. We can now harness the power of molecular biology to treat diseases solve crimes map human history and produce genetically modified organisms and crops and these applications have sparked a multitude of fascinating legal and ethical debates. In this Very Short Introduction Aysha Divan and Janice Royds examine the history present and future of Molecular Biology. Starting with the building blocks established by Darwin Wallace and Mendel and the discovery of the structure of DN a in 1953, they consider the wide range of applications for Molecular Biology today including the development of new drugs and forensic science. They also look forward to two key areas of evolving research such as personalised medicine and synthetic biology. About THE Series: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket - sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts analysis perspective new ideas and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
