This shockingly small number made it clear to scientists that genes alone don't dictate the differences between species; the changes, they now know, also depend on molecular switches that tell genes when and where to turn on and off. "Take the genes involved in creating the hand, the penis and the vertebrae," says Lovejoy. "These share some of the same structural genes. The pelvis is another example. Humans have a radically different pelvis from that of apes. It's like having the blueprints for two different brick houses. The bricks are the same, but the results are very different...

But where Clinton at least brought to bear the power of the presidency of the United States, all Blair really has to offer is his ostensible influence with the President of the United States, on whose intervention any new peace agreement would depend. Blair, however, has had limited success in his efforts over the past five years to get the Bush Administration to apply itself to the priority of forging a peace agreement; his prospects of success will hardly have improved now that he has declared himself a lame duck...
