Overview

When Dean Hamer and his National Cancer Institute researchers revealed they had found a distinctive genetic pattern in pairs of gay brothers, the news unleashed a storm of debate. Their discovery generated controversy and raised serious medical, social and ethical questions. Combining a chronicle of this scientific investigation with an understanding of the ramifications of genetic research, this book sheds new light on the role of heredity in sexuality as well as in other aspects of human behaviour.
