The Gene

I’m currently making my way through The Gene by Siddhartha Mukherjee. Right now we’re just going through a lot of the history of modern genetics, stuff that I’ve learned in school before, but there something about seeing it in this context of being in one place and in chronological order that makes it really fun to read. Narrative is such a great way to tell stories and to make them memorable, and it’s kinda sad that it’s so taboo in education, especially in the sciences.
