The Collapse of Genetic Determinism


                       With the sequencing and analysis of the human genome, the view became widespread that DNA pos-

                  sessed tremendous power and that genes played an enormous role in determining who we really are.
                  Almost every day, newspapers featured articles suggesting that we are under the control of our own genes:
                  "Scientists Target Genius Gene," "Kennedy Tragedies Put Down to Risk Taking Gene," "Scientists Say

                        Nature does not consist solely of a fight to
                        the death. Many living things display ex-
                        ceedingly altruistic behavior, both towards
