Around 60,000 years ago, a man—genetically identical to us—lived in Africa. Every person alive today is descended from him. How did this real-life Adam wind up as the father of us all? What happened to the descendants of other men who lived at the same time? And why, if modern humans share a single prehistoric ancestor, do we come in so many sizes, shapes, and races?

Examining the hidden secrets of human evolution in our genetic code, Spencer Wells reveals how developments in the revolutionary science of population genetics have made it possible to create a family tree for the whole of humanity. Replete with marvelous anecdotes and remarkable information, from the truth about the real Adam and Eve to the way differing racial types emerged, The Journey of Man is an enthralling, epic tour through the history and development of early humankind.

レビュー

“Written with much verve, easy to read, and up-to-date on many important developments.”
—Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza, Stanford University, author of The History and Geography of Human Genes and Genes, Peoples, and Languages

"Spencer Wells, whose genetic work has contributed to our understanding of human prehistory, has provided an account of the spread and mixing of the human species from its origin in Africa that is both scientifically accurate and accessible to the nonscientist.”
—Richard Lewontin, Harvard University, author of It Ain’t Necessarily So: The Dream of the Human Genome and Other Illusions

“Wells traces our distant history with a mix of clarity and charm that’s rare among scientists. He makes the complexities of population genetics wonderfully clear.”
—The New York Times Book Review

enthralling PRE-history of MAN

2003年6月3日に日本でレビュー済み

That is, "man" as opposed to "woman".
Spencer Wells knows his subject inside-out, and traces man's path back to the first Adam, mapping our genetic journey, painstakingly explaining, and managing to be engaging even at its most complicated points. Always separating the known facts from the theory and the speculation. And in humourous prose.
Mark Read's forty-four colour photographs only make it a more fascinating read. With fifty-four halftones, and three maps, too.
TEASERS: There was an "Eve", too, but she came 80,000 years before. The entire genetic diversity of Native Americans can be accounted for by just ten individuals.

ミトコンドリアのＤＮＡ分析から、人類の先祖が東アフリカにいた一人の「イヴ」に集約されるという「イヴ」仮説は、オクスフォード大学のブライアン・サイクスの著書の翻訳でおなじみだが、彼の本の難点は白人に偏っていてわれらモンゴロイドが薄手なこと。それに比べると本書は、遺伝子学者の筆者がスタンフォード大学のキャヴァリ＝スフォルツァに近いらしく、米国大陸に渡ったモンゴロイドまでちゃんと追跡していて、「遺伝子オデュッセイア」鳥瞰図としては優れている。ただ、サイクスと同じようにやや性急に過ぎ、印欧語などの言語学の成果と符牒をあわせようとして、後半に強引なロジックになるのが惜しい。

Great work

Very informative and mind boggling one. Every chapter deciphers the hiden information of human origin and migration. Need some interest in these topics to stay connected. quite difficult to understand some concepts. The last chapter with the source of information is excellent. Luigi cavalla Sforza the pioneer has been greatly eulogized in every chapter. Kindled to read books like gene language culture, the history and geography of gene

Understanding our Odyssey

One of the few books that I find easy to read as a "non-specialist", explaining the mechanisms that could have led to our success in the "conquest" of our Planet. The explanations really seem to make sense, and are compatible with our understanding of Life. A book worth reading.

I loved reading the book as it was easy to follow

Well written and explained by the author. If you never cared who your ancestors were before reading this, you will after. I will be looking for more research and books by Spencer Wells. I loved reading the book as it was easy to follow, not too academic and an exciting new topic of research previously unknown.

Good survey of ancient human migrations

2013年4月24日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

This is the first book on this topic that I have read in its entirety. It began with a friend recommending a movie that the book's author, Spencer Wells, made of his journeys across the globe, where he is seen retracing the ancient migration routes that lead all the way from Africa to the Earth's farthest corners. At first I had seen the movie on Youtube. But I liked it so much that I ordered the DVD, whose title is the same: "Journey of Man" (PBS). After some deliberation, I decided also to order Spencer Wells' book, since I figured it would give a better explanation of some of the things mentioned in the movie - things that were only mentioned cursorily there, about which I now desired to know more.

At first I found it strange that the author does not mention the "haplogroups" that are so frequently mentioned in the media, with names such as A, B, C, I, J, N, O, to mention a few. Instead he uses a system of "markers" with names such as M168, M89, M45, M130, M172, M173, etc. Well, I then decided to forget about the haplogroups, A, B, C, etc, and just focus on the text as it is written in the book. I then found that Wells does a very good job in explaining man's genealogical tree for the last 5o,ooo years, where his M-markers turn out to label the places where one of the tree's branches split in two. The M-marker is then explained as the technical name of a certain mutation that took place at a certain point in time, in a certain geographic location, within a certain man, whose male descendants all inherit the same M-marker. Thus, anybody who carries this M-marker within his Y-chromosome, of necessity has to be a descendant in direct line from the man whose genome first underwent the particular mutation. This is then the basis that is used to construct man's genealogical tree, as well as his migration routes "out of Africa". If one assumes that the "tree" sprouts new branches at regular intervals, one may also calculate approximately when the mutation-event happened, and thus one knows approximately when this particular ancestor lived.

Wells presents simple explanations of the basic concepts of this science, expressed in language that the non-specialist can easily understand. Unfortunately, due to the author's wish to keep the explanations as simple and as brief as possible, he some times has to resort to very general language, that imparts a certain vagueness to many of his sentences. Hence, the book is not really "a quick read". In fact, many sentences have to be pondered for several minutes, before a certain sense of what it can mean, dawns upon the attentive reader. Another thing that slows down the speed at which the material can be absorbed, are the many geographical references to places that most people have never heard about, be they in Australia or in Siberia. One then has to stop and fetch a good world-atlas, in order to be able to follow the author on his journey. These things that I have mentioned, should, however, not be seen as negatives, but rather as positives, because it forces the reader to think for himself, which is the best way to learn new things. (Texts that are too user-friendly have a nasty tendency to fade quickly from one's memory). All in all, I think Wells has given an excellent and simple survey of the subject, accessible to anybody who wishes to follow the author on this mental journey. In this process the DVD is a good help in creating vivid images of the various stations of the journey.

An example from the book is on page 33, where he mentions that "mitochondrial Eve" was a woman who lived in Africa 15o,ooo years ago, and from whom all humans alive today descend. On page 54 he mentioned that there is also a "Y-DNA Adam", who also lived in Africa. But he lived only 59,ooo years ago ! Hence we get the paradoxical result that Adam never met Eve. This fact will certainly cause any attentive reader to pause and ponder. But the author gives no real answer to the paradox. He merely remarks that "men loose their soup recipe more quickly than women". ( Soup recipe is a metaphor the author uses to explain how genetic information is passed from generation to generation). However, at the end of the book, on page 178, the following resolution of the paradox is presented, namely that the number of men who breed has been smaller than the number of women who breed. Wells describes the phenomenon as "lineage loss". My take on this, after reading Wells' explanation, is that all branches of the genealogical tree have a finite length. But the male branches (Y-DNA) are shorter than the female branches (mtDNA).

I'd also like to mention the very useful drawing of the "M-tree" on page 181, and the world-map with migration routes on pages 182-183. They make the reading of the book a lot easier. All in all, I give 5 stars to this book. It was an important reading experience for me.

The Journey of Man: A Genetic Odyssey by Spenser Wells

2014年4月21日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Anyone who reads this book will receive a clear simple story of the most exciting discovery about Human Beings ever told. Spencer Wells is a very important genealogist who like many of them were first concerned with desease which is passed on by our genes; and then with Cavalli Sforza, who studied blood groups and genes and many others! This is told like a story with some more technical parts which one can leave out or not, but those do not distract from the main story of humans which is really thrilling, as it is about you and where you came from and some of the journeys that your ancesters made, some of the tragic natural holocausts your ancesters would have encountered, and what they invented. Ice ages, tsunamis; the sun getting hotter; the world becoming wetter, hotter, colder and drier, have all played their part in shaping humankind
I recommend "Deep Ancestry inside the GENOGRAPHIC project" as it it is a valuable reference book and has a section which describes EACH main Haplogroup, (which is the section out of your genes, which connects you to all the other modern human beings in the world today and from the past); from the start of the Modern Human story to the present, & this is neatly done.
