What is The Molecules of Life: DNA, RNA, and proteins (Genetics and Evolution) about?
<p>Genetics and Evolution is a six-volume set that explores the principal fields of modern molecular biology from their origins to the most recent discoveries and technological breakthroughs. A century and a half after evolutionary and genetic science began, biology and medicine are coming together to form a powerful new view of the living world that is having a dramatic effect on human health and society. As well as introducing the basic terms and concepts, the set examines the most significant social and ethical issues surrounding current biomedical research and serves as a valuable guide to the world that science is creating.</p> <p>The Molecules of Life explains the chemistry and physics of organic molecules, which initiate processes within tiny cells that evolve into amazingly complex plants and animals. In addition to the basic concepts needed to understand the field, methods used to explore the structures and behavior of DNA, RNA, and proteins are also discussed. The book also shows how and why scientists study biological molecules, including how they are built, how they interact, and what roles they play in the formation of cells and organisms.</p> <p>The volume includes in
