novels that focus on the consequences of sequencing the human genome.

A Science Thriller
by Leonard Crane, Ph.D.
If you liked the pervasive science of ''Jurassic Park''
and the undercurrent of global threat in ''The Hunt for Red
October,'' you should also enjoy this book. An unanticipated
development in germ warfare technology, brought about by the
solution to the protein-folding problem, becomes a fast-burning
fuse in this intricately-plotted tale of scientific and military
adventure.
Published by Connection Books and now available at
Amazon.com.
