## Description

Have you ever asked yourself: Are spliced genes the same as mended Levis? Watson and Crick? Aren't they a team of British detectives? Plant sex? Can they do that? Is Genetic Mutation the name of one of those heavy metal bands? Asparagine? Which of the four food groups is that in? Then you need The Cartoon Guide to Genetics to explain the important concepts of classical and modern genetics-it's not only educational, it's funny too!

Review: Great read - Excellent book.
Review: Taught me genetics - I got this one as a replacement for my childhood copy of this book that sadly has gone mouldy. I remember being fascinated by this book as a child, and poring over each page. I learned about Mendelian inheritance from this book, but at the time I wasn't ready to understand some of the more complicated discussion of gene structure and gene repression. Still, this book helped fuel an interest that dominated much of my teens. I hope to show it to my baby when she's older.
