Lavinia reviewed GENE, THE by Siddhartha Mukherjee
Review of 'GENE, THE' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
The history of the gene and the genomic science intertwined with that of the author's own family history of mental illness. 'The Gene' is not just another popular science book. It is a comprehensive, engaging and insightful history of the gene and an analysis of the ethical dilemmas, the challenges and the medical benefits of the genomic science in the 21st century.
