PROTECT YOUR FAMILY FROM HIDDEN MUTATIONS
The Story
In the wake of her 36-year-old pregnant niece’s sudden collapse and death, geneticist Susan Liebman embarked on frantic search for answers. The hunt culminated in the discovery of a previously unknown heart disease gene and an Ashkenazi Jewish mutation within it. Against this backdrop, Liebman's The Dressmaker's Mirror: Sudden death, genetics, and a Jewish family's secret, intertwines heartfelt stories of generations of love, loss, and resilience, with insights into genetics and the ongoing genetic revolution. By touching hearts and minds, the book offers a compelling call to action, guiding readers of all ethnicities how to use the frequently overlooked tool of genetic testing to safeguard their families’ health and save lives.
