Stepping effortlessly from myth to cutting-edge science, Mutants gives a brilliant narrative account of our genetic code and the captivating people whose bodies have revealed it—a French convent girl who found herself changing sex at puberty; children who, echoing Homer’s Cyclops, are born with a single eye in the middle of their foreheads; a village of long-lived Croatian dwarves; one family, whose bodies were entirely covered with hair, was kept at the Burmese royal court for four generations and gave Darwin one of his keenest insights into heredity. This elegant, humane, and engaging book "captures what we know of the development of what makes us human" ( Nature ).

通過毛人矮人連體嬰兒等基因變異的案例講人類胚胎如何發育成形的故事。細胞分裂說來簡單，可是如何分著分著就長齣毛發牙齒骨骼四肢和一張有模有樣的臉，這事太神秘讀完此書我還是說不大清楚。好在作者這種科學史八卦史藝術史混著聊的寫法比較對我胃口。
评分一本為怪胎異形teratology立傳的神奇書籍，一半是陰森恐怖的曆史怪談誌，一半是現代科學，特彆是發育生物學，分子生物學的解釋。作者是荷蘭裔（話說一開始還以為是意大利的呢）

评分寫作標準絕對是嚮唯美讀物看齊的。不愧是歐洲科學傢，把獵奇都寫的美不勝收。
