Best books about mapped genome and nanotechnology

[lenell]

In PA, the libraries' reading program is about science. I read the book, "Life as we do not know it" and want a book explaining nanotechnology and a book about the mapped genome. Since I have no clue where to begin, I hope you could suggest a book in each category.

I took advanced biology, chemistry, math and physics in high school and college.

I have 4 pages of words, concepts to look up from "Life as we do not know it."

I would appreciate your input.

Thank you,

Marsha

Hi,
To clarify, I would rather not have a textbook, but one that explains these subjects in a scientific manner that would be on the best sellers list. I don't sound too clear.
Maybe a beginners book but with science in it and explanations. I still don't sound clear.
Please help.

 

[thankz]

I got this book on order, tell you more about it when I receive it.

Hi Marsha,

I can understand your interest in learning more about the fascinating fields of mapped genome and nanotechnology. These are rapidly advancing areas of science, and it can be overwhelming to know where to begin.

For a book on nanotechnology, I would recommend "Nanotechnology: Understanding Small Systems" by Dr. Ben Rogers. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the principles, applications, and potential impact of nanotechnology. It also includes discussions on the ethical and societal implications of this emerging technology.

In terms of a book on the mapped genome, I suggest "The Gene: An Intimate History" by Siddhartha Mukherjee. This book delves into the history and science behind the mapping of the human genome, as well as its potential for understanding and treating diseases.

I also recommend checking out the science section of your local library or bookstore, as they may have other titles that could interest you. As for the words and concepts you have noted from "Life as we do not know it," I suggest using online resources such as scientific journals or reputable websites to further explore and understand them.

I hope these recommendations help guide you in your learning journey. Keep up your curiosity and passion for science! Best of luck.

Sincerely,
