“The overall message [from the fact that human biomass/matter interplay is (by measurable verification) ‘varying degrees of different quantity/pattern/function interaction(s) per microscopic framework and explicit time interval’] is that the imprint of genes is evident in almost all causal pathways leading to psychopathology but, equally, in many cases the effects of genes are contingent upon co-action with environmental hazards. The old-fashioned split between disorders that are largely genetic and disorders that are largely environmental has become outmoded (by the quantity of experiments completed). The need is as great as ever to identify the separate measured effects of specific genes and specific environments but any adequate understanding of how all of this leads to disorder has to involve a bringing together of genes and environment.” (Rutter et. al. 2006, 182).
