Jones is not only a fine curator and researcher; but he is also an even better writer. His style is smooth with humorous asides and pertinent.anecdotes. He does not embrace the spewing polemics of some of his fellows such as Richard Dawkins. He stays focused on the central theme explaining how DNA replicates like a stenographer or calligrapher often leaving off a letter here and there with resultant aberrations. These misspellings of specific words make all the difference in the world in shaping the offspring of all species. Get a good reader's copy and let Jones lend you a wonderful understanding of relatively current human genetics.
