For those of who you particularly enjoyed the Prospect article on the interaction between environment and genetics in promoting certain mental states and behaviours, Nature Reviews Neuroscience has an in-depth review article on how neuroscience is helping understand this complex process.

If you haven't got time to get down and dirty with a full-on review article though, Brain Ethics has a fantastic summary that captures the main points.
