Darwin and Mendel have created a whole new world, but the mechanisms of genetics and evolution have long been unsolved. Only when the equivalent physicist joins the secret operation, we really begin to understand how complex organic molecules are created. John Gribbin fills in the understanding of this background and describes the intense competition to determine DNA structure and decipher the final code. He believes that today, even the analysis of amino acids in the blood confirms the principles of Darwin's theory and reveals how weird and similar we are to gorillas and chimpanzees. Scientists now understand the basic secrets of life: quantum effects lead to tiny genetic mutations that are transmitted by DNA, which triggers a struggle for survival in plants and animals. " In Search of the Double Helix " explains how these processes are interlocking and provides an idealized overview.
