After months away, Wilde has returned to the Ramapo Mountains in the wake of a failed bid at domesticity that confirms what he?s known all along: He belongs on his own, free from the comforts and constraints of modern life. Suddenly, a DNA match on an online ancestry database brings Wilde closer to his past than he?s ever dreamed, and finally gives Wilde the opening he needs to track down his father. But meeting the man brings up more questions than...

"Science tells us we're all related--one vast family sharing a common ancestor who lived in Africa 60,000 years ago. But countless questions remain about our great journey from the birthplace of Homo sapiens. How and when did we end up where we are? Why do we display such a wide range of colors and features? The fossil record offers some answers, but new research reveals many more, since our DNA carries a chronicle of our species and its migrations....

Investigating DNA revelations that say her father is a man she never met, Paige learns about her mother's past as a straitlaced university student who had a one-night stand with the campus golden boy.

After suffering for years with unexplainable health issues, Dr. Ben Lynch discovered the root cause“dirty” genes. Genes can be “born dirty” or merely “act dirty” in response to your environment, diet, or lifestylecausing lifelong, life-threatening, and chronic health problems, including cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, anxiety, depression, digestive issues, obesity, cancer, and diabetes. Based on his own experience and successfully...

Rick's brother, Keith, a prominent zoologist at NYU, walks out of his office one day and disappears. The only clue they have are his brother's book, which mentions "the God Gene." A million or so years ago, a gene designated hsa-mir-3998 appeared as if by magic from the junk DNA of the hominids who eventually evolved into Homo sapiens. It became a key player in brain developmentspecifically creativityand laymen started calling it "the God Gene." Keith...

Introduce la genética, se describe cómo se transmiten los rasgos de padres a hijos, y explica las mutaciones genéticas.

"James D. Watson, the Nobel laureate whose pioneering work helped unlock the mystery of DNA's structure, charts the greatest scientific journey of our time, from the discovery of the double helix to today's controversies to what the future may hold. Updated to include new findings in gene editing, epigenetics, agricultural chemistry, as well as two entirely new chapters on personal genomics and cancer research. This is the most comprehensive and authoritative...

"A definitive history of the race to unravel DNA's structure, by one of our most prominent medical historians. Biologist James Watson and physicist Francis Crick's 1953 revelation about the double helix structure of DNA is the foundation of virtually every advance in our modern understanding of genetics and molecular biology. But how did Watson and Crick do it-and why were they the ones who succeeded? In truth, the discovery of DNA's structure is...

A three-part British police drama tells the true story of scientist Alec Jeffrey's discovery of DNA fingerprinting in the 1980s and its introductory use by Detective Chief Superintendent David Baker in catching a double murderer.

As one of the last "natural" beings born into a genetically engineered world, Vincent Freeman has none of the 'pre-ordered' DNA that will guarantee him success. Desperate to realize his dream of exploring space, Vincent assumes the identity of a genetically superior athlete. Avoiding detection using the athlete's genetic markers, Vincent becomes a rising star at Gattaca Aerospace, attracting the attention of a beautiful co-worker. When a flight director...
