What is Human Evolution (Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies) about?
Controversy Over Human Evolution Remains Widespread. However, The Human Genome Project And Genetic Sequencing Of Many Other Species Have Provided Myriad Precise And Unambiguous Genetic Markers That Establish Our Evolutionary Relatioships With Other Mammals. Human Evolution Indentifies And Explains These Identifying Transposable Rare Complex Markers, Including Endogenous Retroviruses, Genome-modifying Transposable Elements, Gene-disabling Mutations, Segmental Duplications And Gene-enabling Mutations. The New Genetic Tools Also Provide Fascinating Insights Into When, And How, Many Features Of Human Biology Arose: From Aspects Of Placental Structure; Vitamin C-dependence And Trichromatic Vision; To Tendencies To Gout, Cardiovascular Disease And Cancer. Preface -- Prologue -- Retroviral Genealogy -- Jumping Genealogy -- Pseudogenealogy -- Origins Of New Genes -- Epilogue: What Really Makes Us Human -- References -- Index. Graeme Finlay, Department Of Molecular Medicine And Pathology, Auckland Cancer Society Research Centre, University Of Auckland, New Zealand. Includes Bibliographical References And Index.
