It's about a group of scientists in Russia who have been experimenting over the past 50 years with domestication and how it might be possible through selective breeding in a short time rather than a long one. They're also attempting to establish whether or not there are certain genes that more readily allow domestication than others. I found it fascinating, especially the sheer scope of it. Jim
