Includes developments in DNA and protein synthesis, cell regulation, and their social and medical implications.

Following in the fashion of Stephen Jay Gould and Peter Medawar, one of the world's leading scientists examines how "pure science" is in fact shaped and guided by social and political needs and assumptions.

In this discussion of the links between brain and mind, Steven Rose traces the road to a new understanding of memory that he and other researchers have followed, with all its false turnings and misleading signposts. The winner of the Rhone-Poulenc Science Prize 1993.
