Product Description
George Beadle was a towering scientific figure whose work in the 1940s and 1950s marked the transition from classical genetics to the molecular era. Among other distinctions, he won the Nobel Prize with Edward Tatun for identifying that the role of genes is to specify proteins. An Uncommon Farmer is the first biography of a giant of genetics, written by two of the field's most distinguished authors, Paul Berg and Maxine Singer.
