Have you ever wondered about the origins of your ancestors? Are you
curious about your ethnicity or race? Have you heard or told
stories about your family's past? Would you like to know the
science that can help to uncover some of these mysteries? In Who Am
I? Identity in the Age of Consumer DNA Testing, communication
scholars Anita Kathy Foeman and Bessie Lee Lawton present readers
with the most comprehensive and cutting-edge research on DNA and
identity construction. They investigate the modern trend of
individuals using direct-to-consumer DNA test results to explore
and negotiate their personal and social identities. This book
explores the numerous misconceptions that exist with regard to
race, culture, and ethnicity, and how DNA kits have changed the
ways in which race and ethnicity are understood and acted upon in
our everyday lives. Featuring groundbreaking research, illuminating
case studies, and a compelling analysis of what makes us who we
are, Who Am I? is an ideal book for courses in identity, diversity,
and other social sciences, including intercultural communication,
sociology, anthropology, and psychology.
