About this audiobook

Gregor Mendel, the Austrian monk and scientist, is celebrated as the father of modern genetics. Born in 1822 in a small village in Austria, Mendel’s meticulous experiments with pea plants revealed the fundamental principles of inheritance. This biography explores his groundbreaking work on dominant and recessive traits, which remained largely unrecognized during his lifetime but became the foundation of modern biology decades later. Mendel’s dedication to observation and analysis revolutionized our understanding of heredity, paving the way for advances in medicine, agriculture, and evolutionary biology. The book also delves into his life as a humble monk, his struggles for recognition, and the enduring impact of his discoveries, which continue to shape genetic research today.
