Gene pool party

Martin Moder

How science can make us stronger, smarter and less obnoxious.

How has biology made you the wonderful person you undoubtedly are? Are you responsible for your personality and intelligence? Or can you blame someone else? The new book by European Science Slam champion, Martin Moder, escorts us into the field of future science – and playfully sheds light on some of its most burning issues.

Are people becoming less stupid? Can wimps be turned into alpha males by shining a

light into their brains? How does a couch potato become a muscle-bound Adonis without

having to stand up? And are you allowed to carry a pair of gene-editing scissors onto

a plane in your hand luggage? From the youngest, best-built Science Buster, this book

offers molecular biology at Nobel Prize level.


»This book is about – wait for it – the genetic optimisation of people.«
