My Beautiful Genome, Lone Frank on genes and destiny

[myfletcher]

An intelligent, educated, strong, healthy, nice looking woman. I'd bet he has no children of her own. That is the problem with our world, the least intelligent, most dysfunctional people have the most children and the smartest have the fewest. This world is headed to a bad place.

Interesting. I'm often reduced to a nervous wreck. I wake up every morning with a pounding heart and stress hormones coursing through my veins -- for no apparent reason. I have few outside stressors in my life. So I need to somehow convince myself that it's genetic and can be beaten down? How?

I will try, but it's doesn't sound too different from the old advice which was simply "don't worry, it's all in the mind" Both require some kind of mental trickery.

Anyway, I am going to buy the book.
