PDF-(READ)-Who We Are and How We Got Here: Ancient DNA and the New Science of the Human Past

A groundbreaking book about how ancient DNA has profoundly changed our understanding of human history Geneticists like David Reich have made astounding advances in the field of genomics which is proving to be as important as archeology linguistics and written records as a means to understand our ancestry  In Who We Are and How We Got Here Reich allows readers to discover how the human genome provides not only all the information a human embryo needs to develop but also the hidden story of our species Reich delves into how the genomic revolution is transforming our understanding of modern humans and how DNA studies reveal deep inequalities among different populations between the sexes and among individuals Provocatively Reichs book suggests that there might very well be biological differences among human populations but that these differences are unlikely to conform to common stereotypes Drawing upon revolutionary findings and unparalleled scientific studies Who We Are and How We Got Here is a captivating glimpse into humankindwhere we came from and what that says about our lives today.

There were over 2000 gods- that’s a lot more than all of the gods in all of the different religions that exist nowadays! The gods were male, or female (goddesses) and were often shown as having the body of a human and the head of an animal or bird. . In Unlocking the Past, Martin Jones, a leading expert at the forefront of bioarchaeology—the discipline that gave Michael Crichton the premise for Jurassic Park—explains how this pioneering science is rewriting human history and unlocking stories of the past that could never have been told before. For the first time, the building blocks of ancient life—DNA, proteins, and fats that have long been trapped in fossils and earth and rock—have become widely accessible to science. Working at the cutting edge of genetic and other molecular technologies, researchers have been probing the remains of these ancient biomolecules in human skeletons, sediments and fossilized plants, dinosaur bones, and insects trapped in amber. Their amazing discoveries have influenced the archaeological debate at almost every level and continue to reshape our understanding of the past.Devising a molecular clock from a certain area of DNA, scientists were able to determine that all humans descend from one common female ancestor, dubbed “The Mitochondrial Eve,” who lived around 150,000 years ago. Employing different techniques on other molecules recovered from grinding stones and potsherds, they have been able to reconstruct ancient diets and posit when such practices as dairying and boiling water for cooking began. They have reconstituted the beer left in the burial chamber of pharaohs and know what the Iceman, the 5,000-year-old hunter found in the Alps in the early nineties, ate before his last journey. Conveying both the excitement of innovative research and the sometimes bruising rough-and-tumble of scientific debate, Jones has written a work of profound importance.
