Spanning the globe and several centuries, this is the story of the quest to decipher the master-code that makes and defines humans, that governs our form and function. It is also an intimate history - the story of the author's own family and its recurring pattern of mental illness, reminding us that genetics is vitally relevant to everyday lives.
