NOTES

Read by Katie Schorr

As dramatic as The Double Helix and as absorbing as The Soul of a New Machine, Natural Obsessions explores the advanced reaches of molecular biology, the nature of the human cell, and the genes that control cancer. It unforgettably portrays some of the best young scientists in the world, the rewards and discouragements of scientific research, and the very process of scientific inquiry. "'Lively, lucid…Portrays the look and feel of science." "A motion picture of science in progress." "The height of the exhilarating race to discover the cancer gene." "The debut of one of the few really first-rate writers in science."
