Jolene Leong’s Reviews > The Color of North: The Molecular Language of Proteins and the Future of Life > Status Update

The best part of this book is the human stories behind the science. I never knew about Doug Prasher, and it makes me so sad. And sadly, this happens a lot in science.

Truly insane how well written this is. The detail and also so much homage - to the people who made discoveries, to the revolutionaries who changed visualisation (therefore also highlighting the importance of data presentation in furthering science), and the way it weaves into different topics, showing how interconnected life is. Beautiful.
