...insight into. There's a strong logical presumption that anyone with that much power must lead an interesting life. There's no definitive Nixon biography yet, but the books of Woodward and Bernstein hint at just how fascinating that book could be.

These defenses were an example of extraordinary bacterial cunning. Along with their regular complement of DNA, of genes, the single-celled creatures are endowed with extra bits of genetic material called plasmids, which often provide a remarkable capability.

Floating freely within the cells, the plasmids can be transferred from one microbe to another. When this happens, a bacterium once vulnerable to a drug can acquire a resistance to it and, more important, pass that genetic defense on to its descendants...
