DAVID REICH, Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School, and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, is one of the world’s leading pioneers in analyzing ancient human DNA. In a 2015 article in Nature, he was named one of ten people who matter in all of the sciences for his contribution to transforming ancient DNA data "from niche pursuit to industrial process." Awards he has received include the Newcomb Cleveland Prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Dan David Prize in the Archaeological and Natural Sciences for his computational discovery of intermixing between Neanderthals and Homo sapiens.

A groundbreaking book about how ancient DNA has profoundly changed our understanding of human history.
Geneticists like David Reich have made astounding advances in the field of genomics, which is proving to be as important as archeology, linguistics, and written records as a means to understand our ancestry.
In Who We Are and How We Got Here, Reich allows readers to discover how the human genome provides not only all the information a human embryo needs to develop but also the hidden story of our species. Reich delves into how the genomic revolution is transforming our understanding of modern humans and how DNA studies reveal deep inequalities among different populations, between the sexes, and among individuals. Provocatively, Reich’s book suggests that there might very well be biological differences among human populations but that these differences are unlikely to conform to common stereotypes.
Drawing upon revolutionary findings and unparalleled scientific studies, Who We Are and How We Got Here is a captivating glimpse into humankind—where we came from and what that says about our lives today.

读后感
很多时候，人类对世界某个领域的认知，往往会因为一些底层认知的改变而发生重大变化，有时候是从错误到正确，如“地心说”到“日心说”，有时候是进化和完善，如从“经典物理”到“量子物理”。有时候，甚至一些昔日看起来不是“一路人”的学科发展也会相互影响，产生更大的认...
评分说这本书最新是因为英文版2018年出版，今年中文版就面世了，在古人类DNA全基因分析这个领域，进展一日千里，近几年发掘出的信息，超过之前几百年古人类研究得到信息的总和，也就是说如果你对这方面有些兴趣，担又有几年没认真关注，那么你的认识就可能已经全面落伍了，需要最新...
评分考古学、历史学、人类学和语言学等领域，都是有着比较深厚历史，积累了丰富研究成果的学术领域。 在这几个领域里，你能想到的，前人都已经说了，要想真正提出具有原创性，又具备科学基础的见解，几乎比登天还难。 本学科内很难有创新，而来自另一个学科的研究，却会打破这些领...
评分这是一本很好的书。古人类DNA分析的前沿综述（其实包括很多今人的）。而且这也是一本很有言外之意的书。 书的目录组织很清楚，作者的引言也很直白。全书分为三个部分，第一部分侧重于古人类DNA研究的方向和进展，让读者初步感受对人类演化的研究成果。第二部分将地球人类分几大...
评分The best, most accurate and scientific depiction on human past till now. Thank to genii Pääbo, Reich, Willerslev and their collegues and peers, by means of ancient human DNA and computational science, we now possess a pioneering horizon of the origin,...

因为更多古人遗迹/遗骸尚待发现 +今人DNA数据尚少（有人为管制的原因），所以关于人类DNA分析的相关研究在今后会有很大突破和修正。需要持续关注相关话题。

评分读了东亚和结尾
评分本书作者David Reich是分子生物学这门学科中爱因斯坦般的存在。他通过对当代人群和古DNA进行基因检测，掌握了各支人群的遗传信息，展开一幅史前欧洲人、美洲人、印度人、大洋洲人、亚洲人迁徙和融和的史诗般的画卷，能帮助我们更好的理解那个永恒的哲学问题:who we are and how we got here.
