Science Magazine praised Eben Kirksey’s THE MUTANT PROJECT, writing that the book “provides readers with an intriguing picture of the events, ambitions, and deceptions that led up to the [first gene-edited] twins’ birth, but these insights are only part of what makes it such a fascinating read. At its core, the book is a complex analysis of the global culture in which the project of heritable human genome editing is now developing.” St. Martin’s Press published the book on November 10, 2020.
