The publication vividly presents interesting facts about the amazing DNA molecule and genes, which are the keys to all life — from a whale to a tiny amoeba. Why do we have different eye colors, is it possible to "reanimate" mammoths, why do we look like our parents, how did so many breeds of dogs appear, what is genetic engineering? And that's not all! The book will tell about the role of DNA even in forensics! Funny and witty illustrations, clear and understandable diagrams and fascinating photos will make the story about the mysterious molecule incredibly interesting for both children and their parents
