The Genetic Lottery Kathryn Paige Harden believes genetic science can transcend its occasionally inglorious past, and can contribute to societies in which all people thrive. In her groundbreaking first book, The Genetic Lottery: Why DNA Matters for Social Equality, she explores how this ‘genetic luck’ shapes important traits from personalities to health to educational and financial success.   Join her in conversation with UNSW Sydney evolutionary biologist Rob Brooks, for a fearless discussion about how we are shaped by genetic inheritance, and how we might deploy that fact for social good.  Presented by the UNSW Centre for Ideas.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
