Abstract

Molecular approach has been, for decades, the classical way for studying biological problems. It implies that the essential biological properties can be reduced to the study of two classes of biomolecules, namely nucleic acids and proteins. The interest and the limits of the so-called molecular biology are discussed in this Chapter.
