Tabitha M. Powledge returns with a review of the criticism surrounding the New Yorker story on epigenetics by physician/author Siddhartha Mukherjee, and an attack on the journalistic approach that she sees as the root of the problem with that story: "Writing for Story distorts and cripples explanatory prose. The fact that narrative science/medical journalism is fashionable — and at some pubs obligatory — doesn’t make it right. Or informative."
