It also makes him enormously vulnerable. This remarkable story follows Eli's coming-of-age while his mother, Gayle, must decide whether to shield Eli entirely from the wold or give him the freedom to find his own way. In a vivid and sympathetic telling based on three years of immersive reporting, Jennifer Latson intertwines Eli and Gayle's story with a look a the genetic basis of behavior, revealing how insights drawn from this rare condition shine a light on what makes us all human."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 618.928 La Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 618.928 Latson Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Nonfiction 618.928 La Checked In Add Copy to MyList
