## Summary

From cutting DNA to rewriting it. A field-tour of base editors, prime editors, epigenetic switches, gene drives, and the engineered organisms that will define the next decade of biology. Key sections include: GENETIC ENGINEERING Beyond CRISPR; CRISPR-Cas9, 2012; Base editing — change one letter, never break the strand; Prime editing, 2019; Epigenetic editing — turn genes on or off, no scissors; Delivery is the bottleneck; Approved therapies, today; Heritable editing — He Jiankui, 2018; Gene drives — edits that copy themselves; Xenotransplantation, edited.
