Blueprint

Blueprint is one of those mind-opening books – in this case, about how our genes affect not only our bodies and behaviours, but also the ways in which we make and shape societies. Our social suite – identities, love for others, friendships, co-operation etc – is an expression of our genes outside of our bodies, and it affects other people. And therefore, evolution is now worked on by both genes and culture. A great insight that has repercussions on the future of our species. Fascinating read.
