Surnames are inherited in much the same way as are biological
traits. Since surnames were generally adopted - in Europe during
Medieval times - their distribution has become very uneven:
analysis of the present geographic patterns provides an insight
into the kind of redistribution of genes that has resulted from all
the migrations of the intervening years. Using non-technical
language and a minimum of mathematics, this book presents a lucid
description and evaluation of these studies of the genetic
structure of human populations. A special feature is the appendix
which presents computer-generated maps and distribution diagrams of
100 common surnames in England and Wales.
