From Mendel and the garden peas to the world-embracing Human Genome Project, discover everything your need to know about what genes are and what they do. As the building blocks of people, genes are literally fundamental to what we are, and this book moves from the earliest experiments to the discoveries of Watson and Crick to modern efforts to identify the function of every human gene. Find out why your eyes are brown when your mother’s are blue, how scientists were able to clone an entire sheep, and why one day we might be eating square tomatoes and straight bananas!
