Massive technological innovations now allow scientists to extract and analyze ancient DNA as never before, and it has become clear--in part from David Reich's own contributions to the field--that 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 with unprecedented clarity 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 inequality--among different populations, between the sexes, and among individuals within a population"--</subfield><subfield code="c">Provided by publisher.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Human genetics</subfield><subfield code="v">Popular works.</subfield><subfield code="9">5190</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Genomics</subfield><subfield code="v">Popular works.</subfield><subfield code="9">5191</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">DNA</subfield><subfield code="x">Analysis.</subfield><subfield code="9">5192</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Prehistoric peoples.</subfield><subfield code="9">5193</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Human population genetics.</subfield><subfield code="9">5194</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE / Life Sciences / Genetics & Genomics.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield><subfield code="9">5195</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE / Life Sciences / Evolution.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield><subfield code="9">5196</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield><subfield code="9">5197</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="2">udc</subfield><subfield code="c">BK</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="952" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="0">0</subfield><subfield code="1">0</subfield><subfield code="2">udc</subfield><subfield code="4">0</subfield><subfield code="6">575111REI</subfield><subfield code="7">0</subfield><subfield code="9">35707</subfield><subfield code="a">CSSSC</subfield><subfield code="b">CSSSC</subfield><subfield code="d">2022-09-19</subfield><subfield code="e">Gifted by Partha Chatterjee</subfield><subfield code="l">0</subfield><subfield code="o">575.111REI</subfield><subfield code="p">G-7303</subfield><subfield code="r">2022-09-19 00:00:00</subfield><subfield code="w">2022-09-19</subfield><subfield code="y">BK</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="999" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="c">32312</subfield><subfield code="d">32312</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |
