[Doctor Stochastic]

There are far too few human genes to account for the complexity of our inherited traits or for the vast inherited differences between plants, say, and people.

This is stated with no reference nor justification. Having lots of genes, chromosomes, or other genetic material doesn't say much about the complexity of an organism. Aside from that, other people estimate a different number of genes from what Commoner does.
