About the Original Book:
Walter Isaacson's best-selling biography of Jennifer Doudna and the science behind CRISPR reaches far beyond the confines of your average biography. The near-500-page narrative weaves seamlessly between the history of genetic engineering and advancements over the past century, detailed explanations of the science behind CRISPR, broad ethical debates about its use in humans, glimpses into the life of Jennifer Doudna, and the personal relationships, professional collaborations, and minor characters that colored her path to the Nobel Prize. It is a rich, detailed, thoughtful, and enthralling look at the complex scientific journey that started with some strange bacteria and a couple of yogurt scientists and grew into what is potentially the most important biotechnological discovery in human history.
