The Gene CodeThe Gene Code Ep1 - The Book Of Life

The Book of Life - This two-part series explores the consequences of one of the biggest scientific projects of all time - the decoding of the entire human genome. Since cracking the genetic make-up of humans in 2001, scientists have gone on to unravel the codes of hundreds of other species. In the first episode, we learn that the history of life on earth, going back almost four billion years, is written in human DNA. It can help mankind to discover its past, how humans got here, and perhaps what the future holds. (From the UK) (Documentary Series) (Part 1 of 2) (Rpt) G CC
