A Century of Geneticists: Mutation to Medicine

Autor Krishna Dronamraju
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 noi 2018
Genetics, like all scientific disciplines, is a human endeavor. Thus, the lives of geneticists - their friendships, colleagues and associations - play an important role in the historical development of the science. This book summarizes the history of genetics by reviewing the lives of the prominent and influential researchers beginning with the earliest and simplest branches of genetics (studies of inheritance and mutation) and ending with the human genome project - the pinnacle of genetics research of the 20th century.

Recenzii

"This is the kind of book that any historian of medicine, geneticist, or researcher should have on his/her shelf, as should any reader interested in understanding the current trends in medicine… a book to consult as an inspiration, particularly for young scientists, but also for seasoned researchers coping with unexpected problems, crafting a new project, or exploring uncharted waters." - Alain Touwaide, PhD (The Huntington)
"In the fields of history, philosophy, and sociology of science there is a reasonable amount of information for the curriculum vitae of each of these geneticists and about half of them have had a biography written about them. What is less frequently found in these biographies and brief lives are analyses of their papers and the way they were received at the time of their initial publication. Dronamraju does this with sensitivity and insight into their personalities." - Elof Axel Carlson, Institute for Advanced Study,
Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana and Biochemistry &
Cell Biology, Stony Brook University, Stony
Brook, New York
