:After reading books by [[Charles Darwin]] and [[Richard Lewontin]], Hamer (a yeast geneticist at the [[National Cancer Institute]]) discovered that little is known about behavioral genetics in humans. He was intrigued enough to change his research direction. This book is a personalized account of the luck, pleasures, and pitfalls involved in [[scientific investigation]]-from the germ of an idea about genetic markers for homosexuality to results suggesting that the [[X-chromosome]] carries a [[marker]] for male homosexuality and speculation on the evolutionary and physiological mechanisms involved. Hamer's research included an intimate exploration of the development of homosexual behavior, family histories, and, finally, careful statistical and molecular analysis.
