What can we learn from the genomes of our closest evolutionary relatives?

Neanderthal Man tells the story of geneticist Svante Pääbo’s mission to answer this question, and recounts his ultimately successful efforts to genetically define what makes us different from our Neanderthal cousins. Beginning with the study of DNA in Egyptian mummies in the early 1980s and culminating in the sequencing of the Neanderthal genome in 2010, Neanderthal Man describes the events, intrigues, failures, and triumphs of these scientifically rich years through the lens of the pioneer and inventor of the field of ancient DNA.

We learn that Neanderthal genes offer a unique window into the lives of our hominin relatives and may hold the key to unlocking the mystery of why humans survived while Neanderthals went extinct. Drawing on genetic and fossil clues, Pääbo explores what is known about the origin of modern humans and their relationship to the Neanderthals and describes the fierce debate surrounding the nature of the two species’ interactions. His findings have not only redrawn our family tree, but recast the fundamentals of human history—the biological beginnings of fully modern Homo sapiens, the direct ancestors of all people alive today.

A riveting story about a visionary researcher and the nature of scientific inquiry, Neanderthal Man offers rich insight into the fundamental question of who we are.

這是一本比較特殊的科普書，因為它不僅包含瞭關於自然科學知識的部分，甚至可以說科學知識隻是其中三分之一的部分。它的獨特在於能讓我們一窺當今自然科學研究事業的事務性方麵。作者的講述極富懸疑戲劇性，我一看就上癮瞭，本想一口氣看完，但我的眼珠子實在堅持不住。圍繞著...

霍金為瞭解釋天體物理學於是齣版瞭《果殼中的宇宙》，斯萬特為瞭解釋近代人類學的幾個重大發現，於是寫下瞭《尼安德特人》近代的尖端人類學已經不是進進田野寫寫日記就能解決的問題，而是著眼於過去曆史的滾滾洪流中被埋沒瞭的骨頭，閤以生物學、遺傳學、基因學、考古學、分子...

補標。大膽的自傳，看過之後再次覺得天纔的人生總會有些無需解釋的奇葩點……本科時上顧博的進化課最早聽到尼人基因組測序的故事，而且印象挺深那篇文章齣人意料地發在瞭Cell上，時隔多年從這本書裏重溫細節。另外當時課上還提到張昀老師從恐龍蛋裏剋隆到基因片段，投稿被拒的故事，當時隻聽一麵之辭覺得很不公平很可惜，讀完本書的某章節也有瞭更客觀的認識。

實在是太精彩瞭，有愛情有友情有爭分奪秒也有苦苦找尋卻停滯不前，把復雜的問題講明白需要真正的學識，把一點一滴腳踏實地的日常研究講有趣需要一顆赤子之心，2019年的開篇就看到這樣一本從各個維度都給人提升的書真是幸福的事情，好萊塢為啥還不把它拍成電影，簡直就是科學界的尋寶大片！
