  Among the more than 34,000 species of fish, few have the walleye's following—among anglers and diners, states conferring official status on the fish, and towns battling for recognition as the Walleye Capital of the World. And among those passionate fans, few know the walleye as well as Paul J. Radomski does—a fisheries biologist, lake ecology scientist, and old fisherman. In Walleye: A Beautiful Fish of the Dark he unspools the mysteries of this fascinating fish. 
   
   
   
  Radomski looks at walleye from every angle, with something to say to the curious naturalist, committed ecologist, and avid fishing enthusiast. People who view walleye as the "lion of the lakes" might be surprised to learn that rivers are their ancestral habitat. Some might wonder about the name "wall-eye," a nod to an evolutionary adaptation to dark water environments. Others might ask: what are they, where do they exist, how do they survive, and how have people come to depend on them? Radomski discusses the principles and pitfalls of managing this predator of the twilight and shares his informed perspective on when and where stocking is prudent. He also explores three of the best walleye lakes. 
   
   
   
  From the simple pleasures of fishing for walleye to the most pressing questions about how this species survives, this book is the best word on this beautiful fish of the dark.

  Genetic testing has become one of the most talked-about advancements in modern science, promising insights into health, ancestry, and even future risks for inherited conditions. With the rise of at-home DNA testing kits and their widespread availability, more people than ever are exploring what their genetic code can reveal. But behind the promise of knowledge lies a complex web of ethical concerns, privacy risks, and limitations that many consumers are unaware of. While genetic testing can be a powerful tool for medical advancements and personalized healthcare, it also raises important questions about how this information is used, who has access to it, and what unintended consequences may arise.  
  At its core, genetic testing analyzes DNA to identify mutations, traits, or predispositions that can impact a person’s health and well-being. Initially developed for medical use, these tests have expanded beyond hospitals and research labs, becoming a booming industry catering to consumers who want to know more about their ancestry or potential health risks. Companies market these tests as a way to take control of one’s future, offering data on everything from nutrition and fitness compatibility to risks for serious diseases. However, the accuracy and reliability of these consumer-grade tests vary, and their results can sometimes lead to unnecessary panic or false reassurance. Furthermore, genetic testing is not always as straightforward as it seems—genes interact in complex ways, and not all findings have clear implications for an individual’s health.  
  One of the most pressing concerns surrounding genetic testing is privacy. The information encoded in DNA is highly personal, yet many people provide their genetic data to testing companies without fully understanding how it may be stored, shared, or sold.

  The Shock of Change that...

  As biologist Jeremy Griffith explains in THE Interview (which psychiatrist Professor Harry Prosen described as “the most important interview of all time”), while we humans lacked the explanation for our 2-million-year corrupted human condition we had no choice but to deny that our distant ape ancestors lived in a state of cooperative and loving innocence. But with the good reason for our corrupted condition now finally found, our species' original state of innocence can at last be admitted - and, as Griffith makes clear in his essay The Great Guilt, what that honesty finally allows us to see is the immense guilt and shame we humans have been carrying for corrupting our original instinctive self or soul. 
  Finding the redeeming understanding of our corrupted condition also means we no longer need to employ the artificial reinforcements we have been depending on to sustain our sense of self-worth of attacking, defying, and denying the implication that we are guilty, bad people. What this essay, The Shock Of Change that understanding the human condition brings, addresses is how to manage the great shock of change that inevitably occurs in this fabulous transformation from having to depend on our now obsoleted, artificial, angry, egocentric and alienating forms of reinforcement, to living free of them.
