"At first blush, we would think anyone in the current...RNA science pantheon could write a book like this, but once one takes a look and sees the richness of erudition, the poignancy of detail, the measured nuances, and 'e" most of all 'e" his elegant writing, combined with the underlying perspective of history, I cannot think of anyone in our RNA community who could have done it more attractively. ...No one could have written the eukaryotic RNA story as well as Jim Darnell. ...This book...will not be supplanted by as glorious a book on RNA anytime soon."

Synopsis
In RNA: Life's Indispensable Molecule, Jim Darnell provides a comprehensive and captivating account of RNA research, illuminated by his own life-long and celebrated engagement in the field. Darnell describes how scientists unraveled fundamental questions about the biochemical and genetic importance of RNA-how mRNAs are generated and used to produce proteins, how noncoding and catalytic RNAs mediate key cellular processes, and how RNA molecules likely initiated life on Earth. With a scope extending from the early 20th century to the present day, and with the clarity expected from an accomplished textbook author, he conveys the intellectual context in which these questions first arose and explains how the key experiments were structured and answers obtained. The book is geared towards scientists from the graduate level on up, and will particularly appeal to active investigators in RNA biology, educators of molecular biology and biochemistry, and science historians., In RNA: Life's Indispensable Molecule, Jim Darnell provides a comprehensive and captivating account of RNA research, illuminated by his own life-long and celebrated engagement in the field.

    Item exactly as advertised. Packed extremely well to protect during transport. Communication with seller was clear and responsive. I am very pleased. Many thanks for this rare and nostalgic Action Man collectible from my childhood! Would buy again. 10/10 FIVE STAR ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💯💯💯 My only complaint (which has nothing to do with the seller) is eBay’s horribly slow and expensive “Global Shipping Program.” Get it together, eBay. You used to be better.
