Siddhartha's first book the 2011 Pullitzer Prize winning 'The Emperor of all Maladies' about the history of cancer impressed me on so many levels.  I was expecting it to be a very dark place, I mean how could it not be? But what put the book in the sphere of greatness was how it expertly stepped in and out of the shadows and left me feeling better than when I started,  "Know thy enemy".
The Gene is his second book and is this time he has decided to tackle the history of the quest to understand the genetic code.  It has been critically acclaimed and was shortlisted for The Royal Society book award this year.
