Mental health: genes, experience, culture

Submitted by Paul Grobstein on Sat, 09/13/2008 - 1:59pm.
Maybe this would help to get us out of the biology vs .... argument? Drop "biology" all together and replace it with "genetics"? And then acknowledge that all behavior/mental phenomena are influenced (not determined) by some combination of genes/experiences/culture? (cf Genes, Brains, Behavior and Individuals and Cultures).
