- Synopsis
- From Nobel Prize winner Venki Ramakrishnan &‘Beyond superb&’ Bill Bryson &‘A wonderful book&’ Ian McEwan Everyone knows about DNA, the essence of our being, the molecule where our genes reside. But DNA by itself is useless without a machine to decode the genetic information it contains. The ribosome is that machine. Venki Ramakrishnan tells the story of the race to uncover its enormously complex structure, a fundamental breakthrough that resolves an ancient mystery of life itself.
