　　1953 witnessed a breakthrough in biological science, the

revelation of the double helical structure of DNA. Since the

original revelation by James Watson and Francis Crick, knowledge of

the structure and function of DNA has dramatically changed science

and society. This volume explores the dramatic impact that this

discovery has had on our lives. Beginning with the story of the

discovery of the double helix, the collection looks at DNA

fingerprinting and its impact on forensic and legal medicine; the

extraction of ancient DNA from archaeological and palaeontological

remains; the ethical implications arising from the genetic

knowledge encoded in our DNA; the complex role of DNA in the cause,

detection and treatment of cancer; the debates surrounding the

potential commercialisation of genetically modified crops; the

emotive field of reproductive medicine; and finally how the genetic

basis of developmental language disorders is teaching us more about

how humans communicate.

· An account of cutting edge research, on the fiftieth

anniversary of the discovery of the structure of DNA, by key

researchers · Written in an accessible and entertaining style ·

Includes contributions from: Aaron Klug, Alec Jeffreys, Svante

P??bo, Ron Laskey, Malcolm Grant, Robert Winston, Dorothy Bishop

1953 witnessed a breakthrough in biological science, the revelation of the double helical structure of DNA. Since the original revelation by James Watson and Francis Crick, knowledge of the structure and function of DNA has dramatically changed science and society. This volume explores the dramatic impact that this discovery has had on our lives. Beginning with the story of the discovery of the double helix, the collection looks at DNA fingerprinting and its impact on forensic and legal medicine; the extraction of ancient DNA from archaeological and palaeontological remains; the ethical implications arising from the genetic knowledge encoded in our DNA; the complex role of DNA in the cause, detection and treatment of cancer; the debates surrounding the potential commercialisation of genetically modified crops; the emotive field of reproductive medicine; and finally how the genetic basis of developmental language disorders is teaching us more about how humans communicate.
