The Violinist's Thumb

by Sam Kean

Description

DNA is more than the blueprint of life—it is a record of evolution, a key to human behavior, and a storyteller connecting science with history, language, and music. Through surprising anecdotes, curious characters, and illuminating scientific discoveries, this engaging narrative explores how genes shape bodies, minds, families, and species. With characteristic humor and humanity, the book makes complex ideas accessible while revealing the remarkable ingenuity and strangeness encoded within our genetic material.
