These concerns reverberate even more urgently today as we learn to “read” and “write” the human genome – unleashing the potential to change the fates and identities of our children. But woven through The Gene, like a red line, is also an intimate history – the story of Mukherjee’s own family and its recurring pattern of mental illness, reminding us that genetics is vitally relevant to everyday lives. This is an epic, moving history of a scientific idea coming to life, by the author of The Emperor of All Maladies.

Not many steadfast TV characters say as much about our demented world. Walter is reluctant to die, and ready to destroy lives on his way out. The dad is a loud weakling in a farcical family setup, while Walter White becomes one of the most tight-lipped and impressive characters in modern fiction: an ordinary schoolteacher who learns he is dying and breaks bad, in organized crime and desperate acts of murder. The two men don’t look alike and they are not from the same world. Then you have to convince many people that the dad in Malcolm really is the same actor as Walter White in Breaking Bad. But in the same list, Malcolm in the Middle counts as one item (not 151 episodes), while Breaking Bad is another single item, with 62 episodes. That number includes some shorts, some voice-over jobs, episodes on many television shows, and small parts in some big pictures-for example, Argo.
