ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
In "The Gene: An Intimate History," Siddhartha Mukherjee explores the historical and personal dimensions of genetics. The book traces the evolution of our understanding of heredity, from Mendel's early experiments to the complexities of the Human Genome Project. Mukherjee intertwines scientific advancements with his family's history of mental illness, examining the ethical dilemmas and societal implications of genetic research. The narrative delves into controversies surrounding eugenics, gene therapy, and the potential to manipulate the human genome, raising profound questions about identity, fate, and the future of humanity.
