Synopsis
Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza was among the first to ask whether the genes of modern populations contain a historical record of the human species. Cavalli-Sforza and others have answered this question--anticipated by Darwin--with a decisive yes.Genes, Peoples, and Languagescomprises five lectures that serve as a summation of the author's work over several decades, the goal of which has been nothing less than tracking the past hundred thousand years of human evolution. Cavalli-Sforza raises questions that have serious political, social, and scientific import: When and where did we evolve? How have human societies spread across the continents? How have cultural innovations affected the growth and spread of populations? What is the connection between genes and languages? Always provocative and often astonishing, Cavalli-Sforza explains why there is no genetic basis for racial classification., Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza was among the first to ask whether the genes of modern populations contain a historical record of the human species.

    Ordered on June 16th and got it on June 18th....so I am very happy on shipping and delivery. Sent flat on a piece of card board to avoid wrinkling and protected with a plastic sheet. Appreciate the care taken to package this item. Excellent items that were described correctly. I was tapped out on my budget but these were priced just right so I had to dig into my pockets to get them.
