A Brief History of Everyone who Ever Lived: The Stories in Our Genes
This book tells the story of you, and the story of us all. It's a history of who we are, and how we came to be, unique to each of the 100 billion modern humans who have ever drawn breath. Our genomes carry the history of our species, from births and deaths to disease and war, and this book reveals what our genes now tell us about human history.
From the Neanderthals to the present day, Adam Rutherford explores the expanding landscape of genetics, tracing the genetic clues deep into the past to reveal the surprising connections between our genes and our history.
