NOTES
In the 1800s, an Australian monk named Gregor Mendel was experimenting on pea plants as he tried to learn how a single cell could grow into an entire human. Today we can see the results of his work in almost every aspect of modern medicine. This book explores genetics through its long and controversial history to how its discoveries have shaped modern society
