Genetics is at the heart of modern science - and, some say, of history, philosophy and the law. Genes link the past with the present and contain within themselves the fate of many of those who carry them. Professor Steve Jones has written this book to accompany a BBC TV series exploring the ethical issues raised by genetics. Among other things, Jones explains why sex and taxes are the same thing, how racism changed its name and why the debate about 'criminal genes' is the same as that which led to the Reformation. This book is lively and informal, and aimed at the non-specialist.
