Story of Genetics, Development and Evolution, The: A Historical Dialogue Jekely Gaspar
This unique story offers an introductory conversation to genetics, embryology and evolution, taking us on a historical journey of biology through the ages. We find ourselves at the intersection of competing theories in biology and witness the progression from the debunking the theory of spontaneous generation to the mapping of the genome. Using a series of dialogues between the Greek philosopher Democritus and his disciple Alkimus, we travel through time visiting eminent scientists throughout the centuries, from Lazzaro Spallanzani and Theodor Boveri to Francis Crick, Max Perutz and Christiane N sslein-Volhard.
Attention is given not only to the great successes in the field but also to the equally important and exciting failures.Originally published in Hungarian, The Story of Genetics, Development and Evolution provides a historical background to the life
