Images of the double helix are everywhere: in scientific publications and the media, in business advertisements, as a design for consumer goods, and in works of art. This catalogue presents a selection of the material included in the recent exhibition Representations of the Double Helix. With colour illustrations throughout, it follows the image of the double helix from its first appearances in scientific papers to its uses as a cultural icon.
