In More Science, Less Fear?, Jennifer Hochschild shows how the fraught politics of genomics is unfolding in American life. She focuses on genetically modified medicines that target African Americans, DNA evidence in the criminal justice system, the ancestry craze, and genetic tests in prenatal exams. She finds that contending camps differ in how they answer two questions: How significant are genetic factors in explaining human traits and behaviors? And, what is the right balance between risk acceptance and risk avoidance? Hochschild develops solutions that can reduce the ideological heat and more closely align the use of genomics with democracy.
Jennifer Hochschild is Henry LaBarre Jayne Professor of Government as well as African and African American Studies at Harvard University and a former President of the American Political Science Association. Hochschild is the author or co-author of numerous books, including recently, Do Facts Matter? (co-authored with Katherine Levine Einstein), Creating a New Racial Order (co-authored with Vesla Weaver and Traci Burch), and Bringing Outsiders In (co-edited with John Mollenkopf). She is also the author of The American Dream and the Public Schools (co-authored with Nathan Scovronick), and other books.
