One of the very best books I read over the last 12-18 months or so was Greg Radick's brilliant "Disputed inheritance", here's a brief Amazon review saying why anyone truly interested in the origins of genetics, and its potential futures, should read it amazon.co.uk/review/RU1H1Z6…
The latest edition of Adelphi Review is now available on our website and contains a full report on our Annual Conference.
