Human Evolutionary Genetics is a groundbreaking text which, for the first time, brings together molecular genetics and genomics to the study of the origins and movements of human populations. Starting with an overview of molecular genomics for the non-specialist, the book shows how data from the post-genomic era can be used to examine human origins and the human colonization of the plant, richly illustrated with genetic trees and global maps. For the first time in a textbook, the authors outline how genetic data and the understanding of our origins that emerges can be applied to contemporary population analyses, including genealogies, forensics and medicine.
