Sinsheimer started his studies of DNA structures in the 1940s, and this autobiography offers a unique glimpse into the development of "molecular biology". This is a good book, although I had hoped there would have been more details about some of his work with DNA - the last half of the book is about his adminstrative roles at Caltech and the University of California, Santa Cruz. However, there IS a small bit towards the end of the book about the origins of the human genome project, which I found quite interesting. Overall the book was a good read, with a broad range of subject material covered.

- Dawkins, R., RIVER OUT OF EDEN - A Darwinian View of Life (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London, 1995). This book is essentially an updated version of "The Selfish Gene", modified a bit.

As much as I like DNA, I find this idea philosophically depressing.

- Pollack, Robert, Signs of Life : The Language and Meanings of DNA, (Reprint Edition, Published by Houghton Mifflin Co, San Francisco, 1995). Pollack makes the analogy of DNA sequence being like a "language". This is a very nice text for an introduction to the concept of genetic information being stored in DNA.
- Primrose, S.B., Principles of Genome Analysis : A Guide to Mapping and Sequencing DNA from Different Organisms, (Blackwell Science Inc., Oxford, 1995, 2nd edition published in 1998). There are already several Universities that offer a course in "comparative genomics" - an area that was not even possible a few years ago! This is a good source book for what will surely become an important field in the new future - the comparison of complete DNA genomes.

The Eighth Day of Creation - Makers of the Revolution in Biology, (Simon and Schuster, New York, 1979; an expanded edition of this has been published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press in 1996). This is a comprehensive treatise (686 pages!), detailing the work leading up to, and past the discovery of the double helix. It is a wonderful historical account of the development of molecular biology, and also is a good source for gaining a basic understanding of the underlying principles of the concepts. Unfortunately, it is now a bit dated, but still nonetheless a good "starting point".

Highly recommended reading.

Having said that, I think that this book is perhaps a quite good discussion of what SOCIETY at large thinks of DNA, which can be different from what is the mindset within the scientific community.

There are already several Universities that offer a course in "comparative genomics" - an area that was not even possible a few years ago! This is a good source book for what will surely become an important field in the new future - the comparison of complete DNA genomes.

This book was first published in 1995, as Le Serpent cosmique, l'ADN et les origines du savior, by Georg Editeur, SA, Geneva. I bought this book at a bookstore in Heathrow airport, on my way to a conference in the U.S. It was entertaining reading for the plane trip, although I am not sure I am convinced of the authors contention that plants are trying to communicate basic biochemical facts (such as a picture of the DNA double helix) via some some sort of "jungle television", which natives can experience if they smoke the right psychologically active substance.
