In their target article, Madole & Harden offer an account of "what it means for genes to be causes" of social outcomes to bolster their claim that genetics should be incorporated into social science with practical implications. Here I object to several key features of their arguments, their representation of the state of science, and claims about the utility of genetics for social science and society.
在他们的目标文章中,Madole 和 Harden 提供了一个关于“基因成为社会结果的原因意味着什么”的解释,以支持他们的观点,即遗传学应该被纳入具有实际意义的社会科学。在这里,我反对他们论点的几个关键特征,他们对科学现状的描述,以及关于遗传学对社会科学和社会的实用性的主张。
