About the book: 2007 / If it weren’t for Dan Brown, who wrote “The Da Vinci Code,” Zinovy ​​Yuryev could well have called his new novel “The Saprygin Code.” Because the hero of the work makes a revolution in science. He discovered the genetic code that can make humanity happy. And at the same time destroy the foundations of any social order. That is why Saprygin does not dare to announce a grandiose breakthrough; he keeps the secret, not suspecting that the hunt for him has already begun.
