This document is aimed at computer scientists who are trying to acquire a “reading knowledge” of biology. For those that want to learn more about core biology, the gentlest introduction I know of is “The Cartoon Guide to Genetics.” The most comprehensive introduction is “Molecular Biology of the Cell, 4 Edition,” by Alberts et al., which also has the virtue of being freely available on-line at the National Library of Medicine (NLM).
