[-empyre-] questions for judith

[Jim Andrews <jim@vispo.com>]

judith, can you recommend some well-written, explanatory, educational books
concerning what dna is, how it works. the basics. not a textbook in
molecular biology, but something for non-biologists/non-students of biology.

i see your book 'the poetics of dna' is at
http://www.upress.umn.edu/Books/R/roof_poetics.html . i take it this is more
concerned with the social, philosophical, ethical issues than the nuts and
bolts of dna?

how did you pursue your knowledge of dna and poetics thereof? did you study
biology courses? what did you read, if not?
