Having studied physics and chemistry at Cambridge University, Rosalind moved to Paris to perfect her life's work in X-ray crystallography. She then moved back to Kings College London, where she would work with Maurice Wilkins on finding the structure of DNA. It was Rosalind's \"photo 51\" that was used by Wilkins to create the first-ever double helix DNA model with Francis Crick, although he did not credit her work due to a falling out between the two, and her work went unacknowledged until after her death. However, today, she is revered as the forgotten heroine of the study of how DNA works, and the \"Sylvia Plath of molecular biology.\" This moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the brilliant scientist's life.
