Zusammenfassung: | L. Luca Cavalli-Sforza and his collaborators Paolo Menozzi and Alberto Piazza have devoted fourteen years to one of the most compelling scientific projects of our time: the reconstruction of where human populations originated and the paths by which they spread throughout the world. In this volume, the culmination of their research, the authors explain their pioneering use of genetic data, which they integrate with insights from geography, ecology, archaeology, physical anthropology, and linguistics to create the first full-scale account of human evolution as it occurred across all continents This interdisciplinary approach enables them to address a wide range of issues that continue to incite debate: the timing of the first appearance of our species, the problem of African origins, including the significance of work recently done on mitochondrial DNA and the popular notion of an "African Eve," the controversy pertaining to the peopling of the Americas, and the reason for the presence of non-Indo-European languages - Basque, Finnish, and Hungarian - in Europe The authors reconstruct the history of our evolution by focusing on genetic divergence among human groups. Using genetic information accumulated over the last fifty years, they examined over 110 different inherited traits, such as blood types, HLA factors, proteins, and DNA markers, in over eighteen hundred, primarily aboriginal, populations. By mapping the worldwide geographic distribution of the genes, the scientists are now able to chart migrations and, in exploring genetic distance, devise a clock by which to date evolutionary history: the longer two populations are separated, the greater their genetic difference should be. This volume highlights the authors' contributions to genetic geography, particularly their technique for making geographic maps of gene frequencies and their synthetic method of detecting ancient migrations, as for example, the migration of Neolithic farmers from the Middle East toward Europe, West Asia, and North Africa |

Luca Cavalli-Sforza ; Paolo Menozzi ; Alberto Piazza Princeton, NJ Princeton Univ. Press 1994 XI, 541, 518 S. Ill., graph. Darst., Kt. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier L. Luca Cavalli-Sforza and his collaborators Paolo Menozzi and Alberto Piazza have devoted fourteen years to one of the most compelling scientific projects of our time: the reconstruction of where human populations originated and the paths by which they spread throughout the world. In this volume, the culmination of their research, the authors explain their pioneering use of genetic data, which they integrate with insights from geography, ecology, archaeology, physical anthropology, and linguistics to create the first full-scale account of human evolution as it occurred across all continents This interdisciplinary approach enables them to address a wide range of issues that continue to incite debate: the timing of the first appearance of our species, the problem of African origins, including the significance of work recently done on mitochondrial DNA and the popular notion of an "African Eve," the controversy pertaining to the peopling of the Americas, and the reason for the presence of non-Indo-European languages - Basque, Finnish, and Hungarian - in Europe The authors reconstruct the history of our evolution by focusing on genetic divergence among human groups. Using genetic information accumulated over the last fifty years, they examined over 110 different inherited traits, such as blood types, HLA factors, proteins, and DNA markers, in over eighteen hundred, primarily aboriginal, populations. By mapping the worldwide geographic distribution of the genes, the scientists are now able to chart migrations and, in exploring genetic distance, devise a clock by which to date evolutionary history: the longer two populations are separated, the greater their genetic difference should be. This volume highlights the authors' contributions to genetic geography, particularly their technique for making geographic maps of gene frequencies and their synthetic method of detecting ancient migrations, as for example, the migration of Neolithic farmers from the Middle East toward Europe, West Asia, and North Africa Man cabt Genetics cabt Geography cabt History cabt Evolutie gtt Fréquence génique - Atlas Genen gtt Genetica Humana E Medica larpcal Geografische aspecten gtt Génétique des populations humaines Génétique des populations humaines - Atlas Génétique des populations humaines - Histoire Génétique évolutive Géographie de la population - Aspect génétique Populatiegenetica gtt Geografie Geschichte Evolution Genetics, Population history Geography Human evolution Human geography Human population genetics History Human population genetics Research Populationsgenetik (DE-588)4046804-5 gnd rswk-swf Mensch (DE-588)4038639-9 gnd rswk-swf Humangenetik (DE-588)4072653-8 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 gnd rswk-swf Genetik (DE-588)4071711-2 gnd rswk-swf Evolution (DE-588)4071050-6 gnd rswk-swf Methode (DE-588)4038971-6 gnd rswk-swf Anthropogeografie (DE-588)4133695-1 gnd rswk-swf Populationsgenetik (DE-588)4046804-5 s Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 s DE-604 Methode (DE-588)4038971-6 s Anthropogeografie (DE-588)4133695-1 s DE-188 Evolution (DE-588)4071050-6 s Mensch (DE-588)4038639-9 s Genetik (DE-588)4071711-2 s Humangenetik (DE-588)4072653-8 s 1\p DE-604 Menozzi, Paolo Verfasser aut Piazza, Alberto Verfasser (DE-588)127182578 aut 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
