Ed Yong, bestselling author of An Immense World and I Contain MultitudesA captivating exploration of the remarkable ways our DNA mutates over the course of our lives, with radical implications for the future of medicineOur DNA is the indispensable set of instructions that guides our growth and vitality. The common misconception is that this molecular blueprint stays the same throughout our lives.

And immune cells with remixed DNA can make more effective antibodies against the microbes that threaten us.By letting go of the antiquated idea that every cell in a body has the same exact DNA, we can usher in a whole new era of medicine, including better vaccines and treatments that outsmart cancer.
