Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Printing. Inscribed "Best wishes to Carol Roth / and her grandchildren / Francis Crick / March 23rd 1998" on title page in black ink. Francis Harry Compton Crick was born in Weston Favell, Northamptonshire, England, UK on June 8, 1916 and dies on July 28, 2004 in San Diego, CA. An English molecular biologist, biophysicist, and neuroscientist. He is the co-discoverer of the structure of the DNA molecule. He, along with Watson and Maurice Wilkins were jointly awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine 'for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids, the Double Helix and its significance for information transfer in living material'. One of the most prolific molecular biologists, he played a vital part in research related to revealing the genetic code. He is commonly known for advocating that genetic information flow in cells is fundamentally one-way, from DNA to RNA to protein.

His later research centered on theoretical neurobiology and attempts to advance the scientific study of human consciousness. Signed by Author(s).
