Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. National Book Critics Circle Award--2017 Nonfiction Finalist Nothing less than a tour de force--a heady amalgam of science, history, a little bit of anthropology and plenty of nuanced, captivating storytelling.--The New York Times Book Review, Editor's ChoiceA National Geographic Best Book of 2017 In our unique genomes, every one of us carries the story of our species--births, deaths, disease, war, famine, migration, and a lot of sex. But those stories have always been locked away--until now. Who are our ancestors? Where did they come from? Geneticists have suddenly become historians, and the hard evidence in our DNA has blown the lid off what we thought we knew. Acclaimed science writer Adam Rutherford explains exactly how genomics is completely rewriting the human story--from 100,000 years ago to the present.A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived will upend your thinking on Neanderthals, evolution, royalty, race, and even redheads. (For example, we now know that at least four human species once roamed the earth.) Plus, here is the remarkable, controversial story of how our genes made their way to the Americas--one that's still being written, as ever more of us have our DNA sequenced. Rutherford closes with A Short Introduction to the Future of Humankind, filled with provocative questions that we're on the cusp of answering: Are we still in the grasp of natural selection? Are we evolving for better or worse? And . . . where do we go from here.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Today's scientists are radically exceeding the boundaries of evolution and engineering entirely novel creatures. Cutting edge synthetic biology may lead to solutions to some of the world's most pressing crises and pave the way for inventions once relegated to science fiction.Meanwhile, these advances are shedding new light on the biggest mystery of all--how did life begin? As we come closer and closer to understanding the ancient root that connects all living things, Adam Rutherford shows how we may finally be able to achieve the creation of new life where none existed before.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Racist pseudoscience has become so commonplace that it can be hard to spot. But its toxic effects on society are plain to see?feeding nationalism, fueling hatred, endangering lives, and corroding our discourse on everything from sports to intelligence. Even well-intentioned people repeat stereotypes based on ?science,? because cutting-edge genetics are hard to grasp?and all too easy to distort. Paradoxically, these misconceptions are multiplying even as scientists make unprecedented discoveries in human genetics?findings that, when accurately understood, are powerful evidence against racism. We?ve never had clearer answers about who we are and where we come from, but this knowledge is sorely needed in our casual conversations about race. How to Argue With a Racist emphatically dismantles outdated notions of race by illuminating what modern genetics actually can and can?t tell us about human difference. We now know that the racial categories still dividing us do not align with observable genetic differences. In fact, our differences are so minute that, most of all, they serve as evidence of our shared humanity.…
