Summary
"Rosalind Franklin knows if she just takes one more X-ray picture-one more after thousands-she can unlock the building blocks of life. Never again will she have to listen to her colleagues complain about her, especially Maurice Wilkins who'd rather conspire about genetics with James Watson and Francis Crick than work alongside her. Then it finally happens-the double helix structure of DNA reveals itself to her with perfect clarity. But what happens next, Rosalind could have never predicted. Marie Benedict's next powerful novel shines a light on a woman who died to discover our very DNA, a woman whose contributions were suppressed by the men around her but whose relentless drive advanced our understanding of humankind"--

Summary
"Rosalind Franklin es feliz en el laboratorio, ahí da rienda suelta a su imaginación y realiza los experimentos que, está segura, cambiarán el mundo de la ciencia. Lo único que ensombrece ese universo perfecto son sus compañeros, especialmente Maurice Wilkins, James Watson y Francis Crick, quienes la menosprecian por ser mujer. Por eso, cuando el director del laboratorio le asigna trabajar en la estructura del adn, ella está decidida a demostrar que es tan brillante como cualquier hombre y que puede descubrir todos los secretos que guardan los genes, aunque la exposición constante a los rayos X ponga en riesgo su vida. Cuando finalmente la estructura de doble hélice del adn se le revela con perfecta claridad, son sus colegas, y no Rosalind, quienes reciben el crédito."--Page [4] of cover.
