Modern biology began with Mendel, who suffered greatly alive and dead. Through his hands, the first activation of genetics and modern biology came into existence despite neglect and not understanding why he failed the biology test three consecutive times, which he never passed! Mendel was a monk, and Darwin, Newton, and many other scientists were students of theology, and monasteries preserved heritage and translations that brought old science with new. The 20th century dawned with the revival of Mendel (figuratively, not physically), after neglect while he was alive and claims by some scientists who studied genetics and its laws that they had not read Mendel's writings, including Darwin. He was re-mentioned with accusations of fabricating some results; that was the fate of Gregor Mendel. In the field of the book before us, genes and nucleic acids DNA, RNA, and the story of the discovery of the double helix and the role played by Rosalind Franklin and her assistant Wilkins in that. But the most prominent event was cloning with its major problems and successes, "Dolly the sheep." Undoubtedly, professional ethics have had a pressing influence on the rules.
