Scarfe by Scarfe by Gerald Scarfe

This book is the first to report that research in allogenics/xenogenics has conclusively shown that fishes have retained bisexual potency even after sexual maturity and spermiation. The XY genotype found in the unexpected female phenotypes sired by supermales (Y¹Y²) and androgenic males (Y²Y²) points out the need to employ sex specific molecular markers to identify the true genotype of a juvenile, which matures either as a male or female, depending upon the sex of its pair (female or male) and thereby critically assessing the environmental role in sex determination. This book is meant to assist molecular biologists in the search of sex determining gene(s), fishery biologists endeavouring to develop techniques for profitable monosex aquaculture and ecologists interested in conservation of fishes and their genomes.

Gerald Scarfe began his career as a political cartoonist for the Daily Mail in the 1960s, after working for Punch and Private Eye. He subsequently moved to New York to work for Time magazine before beginning his lengthy affiliation with the Sunday Times. He now contributes to the Evening Standard on a weekly basis. His diverse career has included collaborations with Pink Floyd (The Wall, Wish You Were Here), Roger Waters and Eric Clapton (The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking), Disney (Hercules), English National Ballet (The Nutcracker), Los Angeles Opera (Fantastic Mr Fox), and the creation of iconic graphics for titles such as Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister. His work has appeared in publications such as the New Yorker and BBC TV shows such as Scarfe on Sex and Scarfe on Class.

The Tate Gallery, the National Portrait Gallery, and the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery have all hosted exhibitions of his paintings and drawings. Many people see him as a national treasure as well as a genius.
