Adam Rutherford - Human Genome

From Summer Times, 9:40 am on 4 January 2017

Every single person on the planet who has ever lived or will ever live has something completely unique that can never be naturally repeated: Our DNA. That nucleic acid has the genetic information needed to make all living things. But it's not the whole story, not even close according to former geneticist, now host of BBC Radio 4's Inside Science. Adam Rutherford says the human genome should not be read as instruction manuals, but as epic poems.
