Reviews
"This will be a handy review for graduate students preparing for their qualifying oral exams and the author takes the time to understand the opposing views to DNA in agricultural, pharmaceutical, medical, or other applications of DNA in our lives." -- Elof Axel Carlson, Biochemistry & Cell Biology, Stony Brook University, The Quarterly Review of Biology"DNA Demystified is perfect for the amateur science enthusiast who is fascinated by everything that touches on DNA, from forensics to genetic disease markers to family genealogy. Full of detail and fascinating stories, this is ultimately an absorbing read." -- Nina Fedoroff, Penn State University"Alan McHughen has superbly explained everything we know about DNA, the beautiful and ingenious coding device at the heart of life. This is a very useful book for all those who fear they cannot understand the science of DNA: they will soon find that they can and it's fascinating." -- Matt Ridley, author of Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters"A highly engaging book that explains the basic process of how genes work and the impact that current advances in DNA research has had on medicine, agriculture, and law, in simple and elegant terms. This wonderful book is designed for those who want to understand what DNA is and how it is changing our lives, with much promise and peril along the way. I found reading Alan McHughen's book a delightful and informative journey into the world of DNA." -- BobGoldberg, UCLA and Member of US National Academy of Sciences, "This will be a handy review for graduate students preparing for their qualifying oral exams and the author takes the time to understand the opposing views to DNA in agricultural, pharmaceutical, medical, or other applications of DNA in our lives." -- Elof Axel Carlson, Biochemistry & Cell Biology, Stony Brook University, The Quarterly Review of Biology "DNA Demystified is perfect for the amateur science enthusiast who is fascinated by everything that touches on DNA, from forensics to genetic disease markers to family genealogy.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
