The Code of Life

Paperback (Dover Publications Sept. 10, 2004)
The authors of more than twenty science books for children, the Silversteins here clearly and concisely present a fascinating, but intricate, subject to middle-school-aged youngsters. In this case, they describe how DNA works, how a human cell forms, what happens when "the code" goes wrong, and related topics. This book makes "students aware of an important and exciting field of research and its possible impact on all our lives" — Library Journal.
