The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race

byWalter Isaacson

Focused on jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race, The Code Breaker brings Walter Isaacson's biographical portrait to a complex and consequential subject. Its account follows central actors and turning points while showing how the story reflects questions in the connected fields of biography & autobiography and science. Rather than isolating its subject, the book shows how private experience and public systems continually influenced one another. Together, these elements make The Code Breaker an accessible guide to the subject and the questions it continues to raise.
