Above the genome

Say what we will about the media, sometimes a mainstream piece will really explain and clarify important knowledge.

Epigenetics, DNA: How You Can Change Your Genes, Destiny is wrongly titled (makes it sound like a self-help, fix-your-genes-in-30-days-or-your-money-back scheme) but contains just enough information for laypeople to understand epigenetics and how it could help us understand so much:

"if the genome is the hardware, then the epigenome is the software"
