Science Writer Carl Zimmer On DNA, Heredity And The Next Big Thing In Science

How much are we our DNA? And how much does heredity have to do with just our genetics?

Those are among the questions Carl Zimmer explores in his new book. Zimmer writes the “ Matter” column for the New York Times and is the author of " She Has Her Mother’s Laugh: The Powers, Perversions and Potential of Heredity."

He joined The Show to talk about it.
