Matt Ridley – Nature or Nurture?
Genome & Nature via Nurture: Genes, Experience and What Makes Us Human
Are we humans defined by nature or nurture? Matt Ridley, the author of “Genome,” published in 2000, has more recently written “Nature via Nurture: Genes, Experience and What Makes Us Human.” He argues that genes are enablers, rather than constrainers; thus, we are continually shaped by everyday life.
Matt Ridley recommends “Dot Con,” by John Cassidy.
