Unique

Utterly Fascinating. With this book, David Linden looks to the genetic - and thus, biological - factors of human individuality, from sex to race to neurology to senses and everything in between. The science is well documented - roughly 30% of the version of the book I read is bibliography - and recent - some citations were from 2019, when presumably the book was being written. It is also well balanced politically, stating with a fair degree of exactitude what the science currently says on any number of issues without going into the political debates surrounding those issues - including sex, gender, sexuality, and race specifically. Overall truly a fascinating deep dive that is incredibly readable while also being so exact, and thus one of the better science books I've encountered this year. Very much recommended.
