While the book was an engaging read, it did not live up to my expectations. From the description, I expected to discover the results of this "experiment" of making genes from highly intelligent males available for DI. While the author claims to have made contact with 30 of the 215 children from the Nobel Prize sperm bank, he only details the stories of 3 of them; two of whom had the same (unimpressive) sperm donor. The author is actively hostile to the idea of the sperm bank, which shows in his writing.
