Reviews
"What shines through the text is the fact that Crick and Watson could not have achieved their discovery without the ground work of co-operating scientists such as Rosalind Franklin and with additional input from Linus Pauling and Maurice Wilkins. This results in a clear message that great scientific discoveries are built upon the work of a team and that the altruism in sharing steps along the way leads to effective results." -- The School Librarian  (UK)

Synopsis
Find out how Crick and Watson beat their rivals to unravel the mystery behind DNA. Campfire continue their series of graphic scientific biographies with the men who discovered the human genome., As children are taught about these incredible inventors and ground-breakers in school, Campfire's graphic retelling of these great scientific events really brings the story to life, showing how the scientists involved raced to beat each other and how the results would change our lives forever., Since the dawn of civilization, we have searched for answers to what makes life possible, and in the mid-twentieth century we found them through the persistent efforts of James Watson and Francis Crick. Although the groundwork for the discovery had already been laid out, it was Watson and Crick's derivation of the three-dimensional, double-helical model for the structure of DNA that solved the final piece of the puzzle and won them the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962. That is only a single moment of triumph, though, and the journey they took to get there was a long and arduous one. Find out how Crick and Watson beat their rivals to unlock the secrets of life itself as they unravelled the mystery behind DNA and changed not only science but the world we live in.
