★☆☆☆☆
A Shallow, Disappointing Read
I was expecting to learn new and useful information on how to improve my health through understanding epigenetics. I couldn’t even get past the first thirty pages because of the author’s shallow, Eurocentric and utterly basic ideas of beauty and success. Her own obvious obsession with conventional ‘beauty’ stands in for genetic facts. It read like an Us Weekly article. I have returned my book and I do not recommend anyone who thinks critically get this book.
