      abstract = {"How biology, psychology, and history shape us as  individuals. We are doomed to repeat history if we fail to  learn from it, but how are we affected by the forces that  are invisible to us? In The Invisible History of the Human  Race, Christine Kenneally draws on cutting-edge research to  reveal how both historical artifacts and DNA tell us where  we come from and where we may be going. While some books  explore our genetic inheritance and popular television  shows celebrate ancestry, this is the first book to explore  how everything from DNA to emotions to names and the  stories that form our lives are all part of our human  legacy. Kenneally shows how trust is inherited in Africa,  silence is passed down in Tasmania, and how the history of  nations is written in our DNA. From fateful, ancient  encounters to modern mass migrations and medical diagnoses,  Kenneally explains how the forces that shaped the history  of the world ultimately shape each human who inhabits  it"--Provided by publisher.},
