Genomics has transformed the biological sciences. From epidemiology and medicine to evolution and forensics, the ability to determine an organism's complete genetic makeup has changed the way science is done and the questions that can be asked of it. Its most celebrated achievement was the Human Genome Project, a technologically challenging endeavor that took thousands of scientists around the world 13 years and over three billion US dollars to complete. In this Very Short Introduction John Archibald explores the science of genomics and its rapidly expanding toolbox. Sequencing a human genome now takes only a few days and costs as little as $1,000. The genomes of simple bacteria and viruses can be sequenced in a matter of hours on a device that fits in the palm of your hand. The resulting sequences can be used to better understand our biology in health and disease and to "personalize" medicine. Archibald shows how the field of genomics is on the cusp of another quantum leap; the implications for science and society are profound.

Great value

Super easy to put together, sturdy, and looks great. I had no issues with missing screws like some of the reviewers seem to have had - there was one or two extra of each piece in my package (both screw lengths, table foot pads, and the suction cups for the glass).
The tables are very lightweight but substantial, I love being able to nest the smaller one so it doesn’t take up space when it’s not in use, and I would definitely purchase this again if I was looking for additional surface area that looked clean and minimal but offered functional
