　　In 2004 genetic testing revealed that Masha Gessen had a

mutation that predisposed her to ovarian and breast cancer. The

discovery initiated Gessen into a club of sorts: the small (but

exponentially expanding) group of people in possession of a new and

different way of knowing themselves through what is inscribed in

the strands of their DNA. As she wrestled with a wrenching personal

decision--what to do with such knowledge--Gessen explored the

landscape of this brave new world, speaking with medical experts,

religious thinkers, historians, and others facing genetic

disorders. "Blood Matters" is a much needed field guide to this

unfamiliar and unsettling territory. It explores the way genetic

information is shaping the decisions we make, not only about our

physical and emotional health but about whom we marry, the children

we bear, even the personality traits we long to have. And it helps

us come to terms with the radical transformation that genetic

information is engineering in our most basic sense of who we are

and what we might become.
