Summary
In the 1960s, the Louise Wise adoption agency separated twins for a controversial study on nature versus nurture, without informing adoptive parents. This unethical practice caused emotional trauma for the twins involved. The study's findings remain unpublished and raise questions about the ethics of research involving human subjects, highlighting the need for informed consent.
