PBS纪录片《基因:一段亲密历史 The Gene: An Intimate History 2020》
Spanning the globe and several centuries, The Gene is the story of the quest to decipher the master-code that makes and defines humans, that governs our form and function.
基因的故事始于1856年摩拉维亚的一个不知名的奥古斯丁修道院,一个修士偶然想到了“遗传单元”的概念。它与达尔文的进化论相交,与1940年代的纳粹优生学相撞。基因改变了战后的生物学。它重新组织了我们对性别、气质、选择和自由意志的理解。这是一个由人类智慧和执着的心灵驱动的故事——从查尔斯·达尔文和格雷戈尔·孟德尔到弗朗西斯·克里克、詹姆斯·沃森和罗莎琳德·富兰克林,还有成千上万的科学家,他们仍在努力理解这个编码法的编码法。
The story of the gene begins in an obscure Augustinian abbey in Moravia in 1856 where a monk stumbles on the idea of a ‘unit of heredity’. It intersects with Darwin’s theory of evolution, and collides with the horrors of Nazi eugenics in the 1940s. The gene transforms post-war biology. It reorganizes our understanding of sexuality, temperament, choice and free will. This is a story driven by human ingenuity and obsessive minds – from Charles Darwin and Gregor Mendel to Francis Crick, James Watson and Rosalind Franklin, and the thousands of scientists still working to understand the code of codes.
