Now in full-color, the Second Edition of Human Evolutionary
Genetics has been completely revised to cover the rapid advances in
the field since publication of the highly regarded First Edition.
Written for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, it is
the only textbook to integrate genetic, archaeological, and
linguistic perspectives on human evolution, and to offer a genomic
perspective, reflecting the shift from studies of specific regions
of the genome towards comprehensive genomewide analyses of human
genetic diversity.
Human Evolutionary Genetics is suitable for courses in Genetics,
Evolution, and Anthropology. Those readers with a background in
anthropology will find that the streamlined genetic analysis
material contained in the Second Edition is more accessible. The
new edition also integrates new technologies (including
next-generation sequencing and genome-wide SNP typing) and new data
analysis methods, including recent data on ancient genomes and
their impact on our understanding of human evolution. The book also
examines the subject of personal genomics and its implications.
