With irresistibly persuasive vigor, David Shenk debunks the long-standing notion of genetic giftedness, and presents dazzling new scientific research showing how greatness is in the reach of every individual. DNA does not make us who we are. Forget everything you think you know about genes, talent, and intelligence, he writes. In recent years, a mountain of scientific evidence has emerged suggesting a completely new paradigm: not talent scarcity, but latent talent abundance.

Decent book but there are better ones
Revisado: 11-21-16
I really wished he would have covered what IQ is more fully and how much depends on genetics. Personally I would say it's a decent book but a more in depth look at deliberate practice is covered by Anders Ericsson in his book Peak. For a more social and cultural look on intelligence I recommend Intellectuals and Race by Thomas Sowell.

In Wild Sex, Dr. Carin Bondar takes listeners on an enthralling tour of the animal kingdom as she explores the diverse world of sex in the wild. She looks at the evolution of sexual organs (and how they've shaped social hierarchies), tactics of seduction, and the mechanics of sex. She investigates a wide range of topics, from whether animals experience pleasure from sex to what happens when females hold the reproductive power.

Variety over depth
Revisado: 09-08-16
I thought the book was well done. I really enjoyed how the author broke sex down into three main parts (meeting, sex, child raising). What I did not enjoy was only one to three examples of animals were given when describing a behavior with in the three parts. Overall good but because of its wide coverage less examples are given.
