This fabulous new series takes key scientific developments from the last century and investigates how they came about, their creation or discovery, and their long-term effects. Each book places the development in the context of its time, to increase awareness of some of the amazing discoveries that have helped to shape the world today, and the key people behind each of these scientific milestones. The Discovery of DNA charts the developments that led to the discovery of the structure of DNA by Watson and Crick in 1953 - a revelation which allowed the science of genetics to take off at breakneck speed, advancing our understanding of the make-up of living things beyond recognition.
