{"product_id":"editing-genes-cut-paste-and-color","title":"Editing genes: cut, paste, and color","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"905\" data-end=\"1383\"\u003eCRISPR has changed modern biology by turning gene editing into something far more precise, faster, and widely accessible than earlier methods. In \u003cem data-start=\"1051\" data-end=\"1092\"\u003eEditando genes: recorta, pega y colorea\u003c\/em\u003e, scientist and CSIC researcher Lluís Montoliu explains what CRISPR is, how it works at a practical level, and why it matters beyond the laboratory. Written for a general audience, the book translates complex molecular ideas into understandable concepts, without oversimplifying the science.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1385\" data-end=\"1941\"\u003eRather than presenting gene editing as pure miracle or pure threat, Montoliu builds a realistic picture: what researchers can already do, what is close to becoming routine, and what remains speculative. You’ll learn how CRISPR “cuts” DNA, how cells repair those cuts, and why that repair process can be both powerful and unpredictable. The book connects these mechanisms to real applications—biomedical research, potential therapies, agriculture, and biotechnology—while also discussing technical limitations and open challenges that still shape the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1943\" data-end=\"2580\"\u003eA central part of the narrative focuses on responsibility. Gene editing touches sensitive areas such as embryo interventions, inherited changes, and the boundary between treatment and enhancement. Montoliu explores these debates with a careful tone, mapping the ethical dilemmas and the social consequences that come with new capabilities. If you want an informed, evidence-based introduction to CRISPR—grounded in what is feasible today and honest about what is not—this Spanish-language volume is designed to be a practical compass for understanding one of the defining technologies of our time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BOOKLYA ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52726832136529,"sku":"9791387556631","price":27.96,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0875\/0861\/5505\/files\/editing-genes-cut-paste-and-color-lluis-montoliu-colorful-textured-797.webp?v=1771254441","url":"https:\/\/booklya.shop\/products\/editing-genes-cut-paste-and-color","provider":"BOOKLYA ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
