Full of fascinating and bizarre cases of genetic
mutation and irregularity, 'Mutants' is an amazing
exploration of the human form in all its beautiful and
unique guises. Why are most of us born with one nose,
two legs, ten fingers and twenty-four ribs - and some of
us not? Why do most of us stop growing in our teens -
while others just keep going? Why do some us have heads
of red hair - and others no hair at all? The human
genome, we are told, makes us what we are. But how?
Armand Marie Leroi takes us to the extremes of human
mutation - from the grotesque to the beautiful, and
often both at the same time - to explain how we become
what we are. Through the tales of long-lived Croatian
dwarves, ostrich-footed Wadoma tribesmen, sex-changing
French convent girls, and many more wonders of human
development, Leroi has written a brilliant narrative
account of our genetic grammar and people whose bodies
have revealed it. |
