Through his hands, the first implementation of genetics and modern biology came into existence, despite his neglect and his lack of understanding why he failed the biology test three times in a row, which he never passed!

In the scope of the book in our hands, we are presented with genes, nucleic acids, DNA and RNA, and the story of the discovery of the double helix and the role that Rosalind Franklin and her assistant, Wilkins, played in that. However, the most prominent thing that happened was cloning, with its most notable problems and successes, “Dolly the Sheep.” There is no doubt that professional ethics has had a significant impact on the rules
