Lone Frank

My Beautiful Genome (eBook, ePUB)

Exposing Our Genetic Future, One Quirk at a Time

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Internationally acclaimed science writer Lone Frank swabs up her DNA to provide the first truly intimate account of the new science of consumer-led genomics. She challenges the business mavericks intent on mapping every baby's genome, ponders the consequences of biological fortune-telling, and prods the psychologists who hope to uncover just how much or how little our environment will matter in the new genetic century - a quest made all the more gripping as Frank considers her family's and her own struggles with depression.
