Taboo and Genetics: A Study of the Biological, Sociological and Psychological Foundation of the Family by Melvin Moses Knight is an insightful exploration of the complex relationship between genetics, culture, and the family unit. The book delves into the taboo subjects surrounding genetics and the family, including incest, genetic disorders, and the role of genetics in shaping familial relationships.Knight draws from a range of disciplines, including genetics, sociology, and psychology, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the biological, social, and psychological factors that influence the family. He examines the ways in which genetics can impact family dynamics, such as the transmission of genetic diseases and the potential for genetic predispositions to influence behavior and personality.The book also explores the cultural and social norms surrounding the family, including the taboo against incest and the ways in which societal expectations can shape familial relationships. Knight provides a nuanced analysis of the complex interplay between genetics, culture, and the family, shedding light on the often-overlooked factors that shape our understanding of this fundamental social unit.Overall, Taboo and Genetics is a thought-provoking and insightful read that offers a fresh perspective on the role of genetics in shaping the family. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of biology, culture, and society, and the ways in which these forces shape our most intimate relationships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
