Welcome to Biotech Nation: My Unexpected Odyssey Into the Land of Small Molecules, Lean Genes, and Big Ideas
by Moira A. Gunn
by Moira A. Gunn
This book wasn't what I was expecting.
It was far more readable and entertaining, but somewhat less educational. I was prepared to work very hard with my reading, and that wasn't necessary.
So what did I get out of this book?
Some very entertaining stories.
A high level understanding of what BioTech is and where it is going.
Enough understanding of the issues to understand newspaper articles, and basic conversations.
An exposure to the names of some of the key players in the field, and what their role is.
I enjoyed reading it, and came out more knowledgeable. That works for me.
