Exploring the concept of human biological plasticity, the book delves into historical beliefs and the techniques needed to manage this adaptability. It examines the sociological and biopolitical ramifications of plasticity, shedding light on how these ideas influence perceptions of risk, responsibility, and intervention in society. Meloni's analysis provides a critical framework for understanding the implications of human biology's malleability in contemporary discourse.
