The first is Oedipus Rex (Oedipus Tyrannus) by Sophocles, written in the 5th century BCE. The second is human DNA, with its origins around 4 billion years ago, and continuously revised by chance and evolution. With Sophocles as a guide, the authors take a journey into the Genomic era, an age marked by ever expanding insights into the human genome. Over the course of this journey, the book explores themes of free will, fate, and chance; prediction, misinterpretation, and the burden that comes with knowledge of the future; self-fulfilling and self-defeating prophecies; the forces that contribute to similarities and differences among people; roots and lineage; and the judgement of oneself and others. Using Oedipus Rex as its lens, this novel work provides an engaging overview of behavioural genetics that demonstrates its relevance across the humanities and the social and life sciences. It will appeal in particular to students and scholars of genetics, education, psychology, sociology, and law. Yulia Kovas is Professor of Genetics and Psychology at Goldsmiths, University of London, UK and Visiting Professor at New York University London, UK; Tomsk State University, Russia; and other universities. She is director and advisor of several international research laboratories. Fatos Selita is an English Barrister and a New York State Attorney and Counselor at Law. He is Lecturer at Goldsmiths, University of London, UK and Tomsk State University, Russia, and Visiting Lecturer at other universities. 001440737 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001440737 60000 $$aSophocles.$$tOedipus Rex. 001440737 650_0 $$aBehavior genetics. 001440737 650_0 $$aGenomics. 001440737 650_6 $$aGénétique du comportement. 001440737 650_6 $$aGénomique. 001440737 655_7 $$aLlibres electrònics.$$2thub 001440737 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001440737 7001_ $$aSelita, Fatos,$$eauthor. 001440737 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKovas, Yulia.$$tOedipus rex in the genomic era.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2021$$z9781349960477$$w(OCoLC)1264403060 001440737 852__ $$bebk 001440737 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-349-96048-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001440737 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1440737$$pGLOBAL_SET 001440737 980__ $$aBIB 001440737 980__ $$aEBOOK 001440737 982__ $$aEbook 001440737 983__ $$aOnline 001440737 994__ $$a92$$bISE
