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.
DAVID REICH, Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School, and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, is one of the world’s leading pioneers in analyzing ancient human DNA. In a 2015 article in Nature, he was named one of ten people who matter in all of the sciences for his contribution to transforming ancient DNA data "from niche pursuit to industrial process." Awards he has received include the Newcomb Cleveland Prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Dan David Prize in the Archaeological and Natural Sciences for his computational discovery of intermixing between Neanderthals and Homo sapiens.
因為更多古人遺跡/遺骸尚待發現 +今人DNA數據尚少(有人為管製的原因),所以關於人類DNA分析的相關研究在今後會有很大突破和修正。需要持續關注相關話題。

評分到底為啥我們一定要tracing common ancestor?人類的deep time隻能靠genome去理解嗎?
評分最震驚的是印度大量群體的內婚與隔離。另外,歐洲之外的研究結果還是太少瞭。
这是一本很好的书。古人类DNA分析的前沿综述(其实包括很多今人的)。而且这也是一本很有言外之意的书。 书的目录组织很清楚,作者的引言也很直白。全书分为三个部分,第一部分侧重于古人类DNA研究的方向和进展,让读者初步感受对人类演化的研究成果。第二部分将地球人类分几大...
評分我一直想读这本书!书中看到了人类迁徙演化,原来我们都是混血儿。讲欧洲的比较多,关于亚洲的不是很多。与传统的考古学不太一样~刷新认知。需要继续研读才行,可以学到很多新的认知,人类如何起源,迁移转化,无不密切关联,无不血脉相连,这本书以新的角度审视人类起源,纵...
評分The best, most accurate and scientific depiction on human past till now. Thank to genii Pääbo, Reich, Willerslev and their collegues and peers, by means of ancient human DNA and computational science, we now possess a pioneering horizon of the origin,...
