Genetics Quote #34: Wrestling with Behavioral Genetics
Today’s quote comes from a book that I think many of us will want to read - Wrestling with Behavioral Genetics: Science, Ethics, and Public Conversation ed. Erik Parens, Audrey R Chapman, Nancy Press.
…the scientific truth that behavioral disorders are genetically complex makes behavior eugenics scientifically as deluded as it was morally repugnant. No one is a perfect genetic specimen. All human beings carry risk alleles for common medical conditions, including mental disorders.
