I suggest "Operators and Promoters: The Story of Molecular Biology and Its Creators " by Hutch Echols. (http://www.amazon.com/Operators-Promoters-Molecular-Biology-Creators/dp/0520213319)


Usually I don't enjoy reading my textbooks, but this one is a great read. The book is an overview of the experiments behind all of the great discoveries in molecular biology and microbiology. I've learned more from this book than all of my intro to bio courses. Check it out.

Since so many love Alberts', and someone also mentioned history of science....the DEFINITIVE history of molecular biology is HF Judson's The 8th Day of Creation.

A sort of sequel is Hatch Echols' Operators & Promoters. A bit more technical, but well worth the read.
