具體描述

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.

著者簡介

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.

说这本书最新是因为英文版2018年出版,今年中文版就面世了,在古人类DNA全基因分析这个领域,进展一日千里,近几年发掘出的信息,超过之前几百年古人类研究得到信息的总和,也就是说如果你对这方面有些兴趣,担又有几年没认真关注,那么你的认识就可能已经全面落伍了,需要最新...

考古学、历史学、人类学和语言学等领域,都是有着比较深厚历史,积累了丰富研究成果的学术领域。 在这几个领域里,你能想到的,前人都已经说了,要想真正提出具有原创性,又具备科学基础的见解,几乎比登天还难。 本学科内很难有创新,而来自另一个学科的研究,却会打破这些领...

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,...

评分

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。

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?

评分

序言裏作者把基因研究的美國大規模工業化降低單位樣本分析成本就很…美國哈哈!閤作的物理學傢兼程序員也好厲害,引起我的興趣瞭,幾個晚上看完,很多結果齣人意料,又有很多看完恍然大悟,還提到一點基因研究麵臨的倫理問題和所謂政治正確,有時間還會再看一遍

评分

本書作者David Reich是分子生物學這門學科中愛因斯坦般的存在。他通過對當代人群和古DNA進行基因檢測,掌握瞭各支人群的遺傳信息,展開一幅史前歐洲人、美洲人、印度人、大洋洲人、亞洲人遷徙和融和的史詩般的畫捲,能幫助我們更好的理解那個永恒的哲學問題:who we are and how we got here.
