Anyone read a good book or article on epigenetics they can review? I'm looking for the latest science made readable. Seems every snake oil salesman is starting to use epigenetics as a cure-all

What's your interest in ? Simply understanding epigenetics ? Seeing examples ?
Look at youtube videos by Michael J. Meaney.

I've formally studied epigenetics.
What would you like to know?

I watched ghost in your genes and also read the material at the university of Utah's epigenetics site. Great overview
What I'm trying to do is arm my bullshit detector. Just like quantum mechanics, which I formally learned, people seem to misappropriate epigenetics to serve their purpose. I'd like to learn enough to understand when they have plausible theories using epigenetics or when they're speaking out their ass

Finally, something this place excels in.

Lol I hear you 100 percent. I encountered a lot of BS during my research. It takes some time but youll get there. I definitely suggest tracing back and reading the primary source material.

Any recommendations?

No but I can give you some strongly held opinions. Never buy a book on the subject by a woman, if you know what I mean.

Never get involved in a land war in Asia.
And never trust a Sicilian when death is on the line!
