By Mark Jobling, Brenna Henn, Edward Hollox, Toomas Kivisild, Luca Pagani, and Chris Tyler-Smith

Human Evolutionary Genetics, 3rd Edition by Mark Jobling, Brenna Henn, Edward Hollox, Toomas Kivisild, Luca Pagani, and Chris Tyler-Smith is an advanced genetics and evolutionary biology textbook examining human origins, population history, genomic diversity, natural selection, ancient DNA, admixture, disease, identity, and the genetic evidence underlying human evolutionary change. Published by CRC Press, this edition integrates molecular genetics, genomics, anthropology, archaeology, and evolutionary theory for students and researchers studying human biological variation.

Designed for genetics programs, anthropology departments, evolutionary biology courses, population genetics training, biomedical science programs, graduate seminars, university libraries, and institutional research collections, this textbook supports advanced teaching and research in human genomics, molecular anthropology, evolutionary medicine, population history, and genetic diversity.

What This Book Does

This book explains how genetic variation is generated, inherited, measured, analyzed, and interpreted to reconstruct human evolutionary history. It connects genome diversity, mutation, recombination, drift, selection, population structure, migration, admixture, ancient DNA, disease genetics, and phenotypic variation to broader questions about human origins, adaptation, population movement, and biological identity.
