Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Twenty-three years after their heated debate on science versus sentiment regarding the nature-nurture debate and human experimentation, a middle-aged doctor decides to investigate an old friend's radical experiment. The doctor's friend, a scientist, had swapped the newborn sons of a convicted female murderer and a noblewoman to challenge the established belief that heredity trumps environment. The doctor, now retired from his medical practice, follows the scientist's trail to a small town and rents a cottage from two elderly, opinionated sisters. As he immerses himself in the local history and gossip, he uncovers a web of relationships and secrets that shed light on the possible identities of the two subjects of the experiment. Through a series of clever observations and deductions, he pieces together the truth and uncovers the profound impact of this audacious experiment on the lives of those involved. This book, set in the early 20th century, is a fascinating exploration of the variables that shape human character, the ethics of scientific experimentation, and the enduring power of human connection. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334229183_0
