This book examines the contribution of the German biologist Herbert Bach (1926 - 1996) to physical anthropology and human genetics in Eastern Germany. It highlights his scientific achievements and publications, his work as director (1960 - 1993) and lecturer at the Institute of Anthropology in Jena (Germany). In order to trace his contributions, this work outlines the previous historical development of the Institute of Anthropology under Hans Friedrich Karl Günther (1930 - 1935) and Bernhard Struck (1936 - 1960). Bach fostered the cooperation between anthropology and genetics by examining anthropological data within a genetic framework. His major accomplishments included the prehistoric anthropology of former populations in central Germany and the implementation of genetic counseling services in Eastern Germany. As director of the Institute of Anthropology, he advanced anthropometrie and prehistoric anthropology and expanded teaching in content and scope. He elaborated new anthropological curricula of biologists, teachers and physicians. In addition Bach re-built the anthropological institute, shifting its focus from ethnology to genetics and expanding the scope of research and teaching. He also integrated the institute into a network of genetic counseling services.

Spätestens mit Inkrafttreten des Gendiagnostikgesetzes wird in Recht, Ethik und Genetik verstärkt diskutiert, wie das dort dem Grunde nach anerkannte "Recht auf Nichtwissen" in den jeweiligen konkreten Anwendungskontexten rechtspraktisch operationalisiert werden kann. Vor diesem Hintergrund etablierte sich eine vom BMBF geförderte Göttinger Projektgruppe (2013-2015), die sich aus renommierten Vertretern der Fachdisziplinen Ethik, Humangenetik, Genetischer Psychiatrie und Recht zusammensetzte. Ihr Ziel war es, unter besonderem Fokus auf die aktuellen bzw. absehbaren technologischen Entwicklungen der modernen Gensequenzierung den zentralen Wertekonflikt im Spannungsfeld von "Autonomie" und "ärztlicher Fürsorge" interdisziplinär und systematisch unter anderem auf Grundlage einer begleitenden Fragebogenstudie zu analysieren. Dieser Band bündelt die wesentlichen Erkenntnisse der einzelnen Forschungsdisziplinen; zudem beziehen weitere namhafte Experten zu den Ergebnissen und aktuellen Entwicklungen vertiefend Stellung.

"The Trouble with Twin Studies questions popular genetic explanations of human behavioral differences based upon the existing body of twin research. Psychologist Jay Joseph outlines the fallacies of twin studies in the context of the ongoing decades-long failure to discover genes for human behavioral differences, including IQ, personality, and the major psychiatric disorders. This volume critically examines twin research, with a special emphasis on reared-apart twin studies, and incorporates new and updated perspectives, analyses, arguments, and evidence."--
