Overall, I enjoyed this one. It's a great reminder that although DNA research has provided useful in many cases, for the average joe, it's just fun science. Like tracing your family tree - there is only so much you can actually find out through DNA. It can be interesting to explore, but at the end of the day, it's just one of many things that paint the picture of humanity.

I listened to this one on Audible and the author reading his own work was actually really well done. This is definitely more like a textbook than a relaxing read but it was interesting and I learned a lot about the science around genetics.
