Definitely an informative book. Brings everyone up to date (as much as is possible in a fast moving field such as this can be done in a published book). The author shoots straight on a variety of topics within the field of genetic editing. Includes many examples in an assortment of areas such as plant life, insects, reptiles, mammals and of course humans - where DNA editing has already been successfully used. Sometimes with good and sometimes with not so good results. A must read for those of us who are interested in this field but can't or don't want to wade through all the technical jargon in Cell. The future of DNA editing is exciting and somewhat alarming but I'm sure Carey will keep us all posted on a regular basis. ( )
