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

Massive technological innovations now allow scientists to extract and analyze ancient DNA as never before and it has become clearin part from David Reichs own contributions to the fieldthat genomics is as important a means of understanding the human past as archeology linguistics and the written word Now in The New Science of the Human Past Reich describes just how the human genome provides not only all the information that a fertilized human egg needs to develop but also contains within it the history of our species He delineates how the Genomic Revolution and ancient DNA are transforming our understanding of our own lineage as modern humans how genomics deconstructs the idea that there are no biologically meaningful differences among human populations though without adherence to pernicious racist hierarchies and how DNA studies reveal the deep history of human inequalityamong different populations between the sexes and among individuals within a population. 15 Ancient DNA Beth Shapiro OUTLINE 1 Beginnings 2 The importance of being clean 3 Name that bone Inserting extinct species into molecular phylogenies 4 Ancient population genetics and phylogeography 5 Ancient g brPage 1br Infinitive Simple Past Past Participle alight alighted alit alighted alit arise arose arisen awake awoke awaked awoken awaked be was were been bear bore borne born beat beat bea 7.

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, Reich’s 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 humankind—where we came from and what that says about our lives today.
