評分屌爆的Paabo!在Irvine的Barnes noble 偶得,售書的大叔對人類基因組裏的尼安德特片段嘖嘖稱奇,真牛掰,讀完瞭就五體投地瞭,立下研究人類智力起源的誌嚮!今年十月份去法國開會見見大牛們!

評分前沿科學傢和學科開創者(古人類遺傳學)自述做科學的過程。寫得真好,充滿瞭熱情、推理、科學方法以及對細節的注重和堅持的精神,還有形形色色的相關人物並順帶八卦瞭些自己的情史。學生時代就自費研究埃及木乃伊,這是怎樣一種探索精神。強烈推薦給所有對分子遺傳學或/和古人類學感興趣的人;另外,即便對這些學科興趣不大,這本書也很好的展示瞭科學究竟是怎麼做的,結論是怎麼做齣的等。
Svante Pääbo is the founder of the field of ancient DNA. The director of the department of genetics at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Pääbo has been featured in the New York Times, Newsweek, National Geographic, and The Economist, as well as on NPR, PBS, and BBC. In 2009 Time named him one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World. Pääbo lives in Leipzig, Germany.
What can we learn from the genomes of our closest evolutionary relatives?
Neanderthal Man tells the story of geneticist Svante Pääbo's mission to answer this question, and recounts his ultimately successful efforts to genetically define what makes us different from our Neanderthal cousins. Beginning with the study of DNA in Egyptian mummies in the early 1980s and culminating in the sequencing of the Neanderthal genome in 2010, Neanderthal Man describes the events, intrigues, failures, and triumphs of these scientifically rich years through the lens of the pioneer and inventor of the field of ancient DNA.
We learn that Neanderthal genes offer a unique window into the lives of our hominin relatives and may hold the key to unlocking the mystery of why humans survived while Neanderthals went extinct. Drawing on genetic and fossil clues, Pääbo explores what is known about the origin of modern humans and their relationship to the Neanderthals and describes the fierce debate surrounding the nature of the two species' interactions. His findings have not only redrawn our family tree, but recast the fundamentals of human history—the biological beginnings of fully modern Homo sapiens, the direct ancestors of all people alive today.
A riveting story about a visionary researcher and the nature of scientific inquiry, Neanderthal Man offers rich insight into the fundamental question of who we are.
这是一本比较特殊的科普书,因为它不仅包含了关于自然科学知识的部分,甚至可以说科学知识只是其中三分之一的部分。它的独特在于能让我们一窥当今自然科学研究事业的事务性方面。作者的讲述极富悬疑戏剧性,我一看就上瘾了,本想一口气看完,但我的眼珠子实在坚持不住。 围绕着...
評分什么是尼安德特人?为什么要研究尼安德特人? 1856年,距离达尔文出版《物种起源》还有三年的时间,德国城市杜塞尔多夫以东的尼安德特河谷中,工人在清理采石场的一个小山洞的时候,发现了一个头盖骨和一些骨头。当时的工人们也没在意,他们以为这是熊的骨头。但这种骨头却越来...
評分 評分076|101,《尼安德特人》。 尹哥书单推荐之一,如对生命科学有兴趣可关注公众号“尹哥聊基因”。 演化丛书。让我想起前段时间腾讯的WE大会,探索过去与探索未来的意义。探索过去是让我们认识自己,突破知识的边际;探索未来是让我们突破自己,认识更多更深的过去。 本书讲述笔...
