Book Review: The double helix by J.D. Watson

DNA STRUCTURE

The study of the human biology is very complex since even the smallest parts of the body should be considered . There are scholars who devoted themselves in studying the structure of the human body and these include , Maurin Wilkins and Francis Crick and Linus Pauling . Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins have jointly received the prestigious Nobel Prize award for their excellent work in medicine as wee as physiology and their determination of studying the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA . In the The Double Helix ' written by James D . Watson , he

br has been able to write how he and his colleagues discovered DNA . This book is noted to be an exception piece of writing . In this book , Watson has been able to blend the s of personalities with an account of how he has been able to arrive at the Cavendish laboratory in England and starts his relationships with other scientists including his friends and his foe

By identifying the DNA structure , which is considered as the molecule of life , Francis Crick as well as James Watson has been able to revolutionized biochemistry . During that time , Watson was only on his early twenties as he relates his and Cricks desperate efforts to beat Linus Pauling to the Holy Grail of the science 's life . The contemporary biotechnology has also been able to form its basis in terms of the structural knowledge of the DNA in this aspect the ability of the scientist to customize the DNA of host cells...
