by Steve Jones
Displaying a remarkable ability to illustrate complex ideas simply, geneticist Jones takes the reader on a fascinating tour of the world of human genetics, explaining how the field began, the role genes play in shaping who and what we are, and the effects that new genetic discoveries have had on the basic theories of evolution.
First line
THE OLD ENGLISH FAMILY the Temple-Nugent-Bridges-Chandos-Grenvilles-now, alas, extinct-was justifiably proud of its heritage.
