| Zusammenfassung: | "How biology, psychology, and history shape us as individuals We are doomed to repeat history if we fail to learn from it, but how are we affected by the forces that are invisible to us? In The Invisible History of the Human Race Christine Kenneally draws on cutting-edge research to reveal how both historical artifacts and DNA tell us where we come from and where we may be going. While some books explore our genetic inheritance and popular television shows celebrate ancestry, this is the first book to explore how everything from DNA to emotions to names and the stories that form our lives are all part of our human legacy. Kenneally shows how trust is inherited in Africa, silence is passed down in Tasmania, and how the history of nations is written in our DNA. From fateful, ancient encounters to modern mass migrations and medical diagnoses, Kenneally explains how the forces that shaped the history of the world ultimately shape each human who inhabits it"--Provided by publisher |

INDEX

For much of its existence,
the human race has been fascinated by, mystified
at, and driven to understand its origins. From the
rnultitude of* begats in the Old Testament to the
dynastic obsessions of European and Asian royalty
to the recent burst of interest in genealogy, which
advances in decoding the genome have made possi¬
ble, our hunger for information about our biological
and cultural past has been a hallmark of our spe¬
cies. Knowing where
лд/е
stand
—
with respect to our
direct and distant ancestors, our nationalities, and
even t.cy the tribal bands that long ago wandered from
the birthplace of
Ηοιύιο
sapiens in
África
to populate
the earth
—
grounds us in. our humanity by enabling
us to claim our place in the Great Chain of Being.
In
THe T?xvisiöle
History of tHe
НгАГїгсіп ґісісє,
Christine Kenneally, author of the critically ac¬
claimed The First Word, draws on. cutting-edge
research to examine how the latest discoveries in
fields ranging from genetics to economics reveal
where we come from
—
and where we may be head¬
ing. The rich legacy of humanity is a treasure trove
that exists not only in the form of historical artifacts
but also in our very
DISTA,
our names, and even our
emotions. From fateful ancient encounters to
ιύιοο.-
ern mass migrations and medical diagnoses, the
forces that have shaped the world have ultimately
shaped each human who inhabits it.
Kenne
ally takes the reader from the massive
global genealogical database assembled by the JVlor-
mon
church to dusty archives containing Australian
prison records to ail Oxford lab tracing the invisi¬
ble populations of Or eat Britain
bacie
thousands of
years to the new genetic detectives, revealing the
extraordinary advances science has been making in
uncovering the long-buried secrets of our past and
il luminati
rig our present. How are private comipci-
nies
like Ancestry.com preserving, advancing, and
potentially editing the past? How are secrets passed
down in families and nations, and how are attitudes
like trust and anti-Semitism passed on by
dirre
rent
cultures? What does socioeconomics have to do
with the genomic landscape, and what role does Ne¬
anderthal
DNA play
in our current genetic makeup?
What is the origin of the mysterious Melungeons of
Appalachia?
The Invisible History of the Human Race is a
deeply researched and provocative perspective on
one of the most intriguing and valuable areas of
modern science: nothing less than the careful trac¬
ing back through time for the fullest account of who
we are and what we might become.
