Cavalli-Sforza and others have answered this question-anticipated by Darwin-with a decisive yes. \u003ci\u003eGenes, Peoples, and Languages \u003c\/i\u003ecomprises five lectures that serve as a summation of the author's work over several decades, the goal of which has been nothing less than tracking the past hundred thousand years of human evolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCavalli-Sforza raises questions that have serious political, social, and scientific import: When and where did we evolve? How have human societies spread across the continents? How have cultural innovations affected the growth and spread of populations? What is the connection between genes and languages? Always provocative and often astonishing, Cavalli-Sforza explains why there is no genetic basis for racial classification.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520228731\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520228733\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 239\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.66w x 0.59d","brand":"Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054475571455,"sku":"9780520228733","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7279b0c3-e0c3-4876-a90b-777ece542422.jpg?v=1685030191","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/genes-peoples-and-languages-luigi-luca-cavalli-sforza-9780520228733","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
