Klappentext
From the award-winning scientist who identified the bones of Richard III in a Leicester car park and led the project to sequence Hitler's genome, this is a book of extraordinary stories - mysteries that were solved using the power of DNA.
Professor Turi King takes us on a journey to understand the real science behind some of the world's most famous crimes, from dead kings to modern murders, showing how DNA can both convict and exonerate. And moving from mistaken dinosaur DNA to Angelina Jolie's BRCA1 gene, from eugenics to epigenetics, and the study of Hitler's DNA, she explains how genetics informs every aspect of our lives, why it affects us all, and what it can - and can't tell you about who you are.
Fascinating, compassionate and entirely captivating*, The Secrets of Our DNA* shows us how we are all interconnected. It also reminds us that while our DNA can yield information about our predisposition to disease and other conditions, it need not be our destiny. We should all be a part of the discussion as to how incredible new genetic discoveries are utilized for the benefit of all life on earth.???????
