BookLife Prize review of my One Family
Plot/Idea: Seltzer's central concepts revolve around the interconnectedness of genealogical connections for the world's population. He asserts that, by tracing family trees far enough back into our history, humankind would discover that we are "all one family."

Why Not? a personal quest
I don't think outside the box. The very notion of "the box" is an illusion that limits the range of topics, squashes curiosity and creativity, and precludes innovative solutions.
