About this product

Product Information

Molecular biology has come to dominate our perceptions of life, health and disease. In the decades following World War II, the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology at Cambridge was a world-renowned centre of this emerging discipline. It was here that Crick and Watson, Kendrew and Perutz, Sanger and Brenner pursued their celebrated investigations. Soraya de Chadarevian's important new study is the first to examine the creation and expansion of molecular biology through the prism of this remarkable institution. Firmly placing the history of the laboratory in its broader institutional and scientific context, she shows how molecular biology was built at the lab bench and through the wide circulation of tools, models and researchers, as well as in governmental committees, international exhibitions and television studios. Designs for Life is a major contribution both to the history of molecular biology, and to the history of science and technology in post-war Britain. Nominated as one of the top 5 Science books of 2002 by The Sunday Times.

Extremely ecstatic with this purchase! Literally a steal! The whole outfit is exactly as described and pictured. More importantly it came carefully wrapped and extremely well packaged. Highly doubt it was even worn at all since it is in superb condition. Many thanks to the seller for keeping it well maintained 🌟 Definitely recommend both store and seller as all items being sold are absolute gems and rarities at amazing prices! I will definitely be purchasing again soon! Thank you so much ❤️

We're so glad you love it! We'd listed it for auction six or seven times, gradually reducing the price down from the original £59, so you definitely got a bargain - and we're happy it finally found a home with someone who appreciates it because we thought it was beautiful too! Thanks for supporting the Arthur Rank Hospice Charity :-)
