Review Roundup
A Crack in Creation by Jennifer Doudna and Samuel H. Sternberg is praised for its comprehensive exploration of CRISPR technology and its potential impact on genetics and medicine. Readers appreciate its accessible writing and insightful ethical discussions. However, some find the technical depth challenging and the narrative slightly biased towards the authors' perspectives.
Who Should Read A Crack in Creation?
A reader who would enjoy A Crack in Creation by Jennifer Doudna and Samuel H. Sternberg is likely interested in genetics, biotechnology, and ethical implications of scientific advancements. Fans of Walter Isaacson's The Code Breaker or Siddhartha Mukherjee's The Gene would find this book equally compelling for its blend of accessible science and personal narrative.
