买来块二十年了……一直束之高阁,今天整理房间的时间拿下来读了下。真是非常好的科学/科普读物。又抒情又精准。因为涉及的领域很多,所以翻译的措辞有些不准确,但不碍于理解。很可惜在英语世界没有引起什么反响。

Who We Are and How We Got Here

David Reich publishing house: OUP Oxford 2018 - 3
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.
