Introduction
Adam Rutherford is a geneticist and author of the new book Control, the dark history and troubling present of eugenics. The idea of inheritance that people can pass parts of themselves onto their kids, it's something humans have long observed. Early examples of what I consider to be like genetic counseling or genetic information about how like units of inheritance are passed on generations to generations to generations come from the Talmud.
