In Deep Ancestry, scientist and National Geographic explorer Spencer Wells shows how tiny genetic changes add up over time into a fascinating story. Using scores of real-life examples, helpful analogies, and detailed diagrams and illustrations, he explains exactly how each and every individual's DNA contributes another piece to the jigsaw puzzle of human history. The book takes readers inside the Genographic Project—the landmark study now assembling the world's largest collection of DNA samples and employing the latest in testing technology and computer analysis to examine hundreds of thousand of genetic profiles from all over the globe—and invites us all to take part.

One of the most successful families that England has produced, the Spencer dynasty has never lost its instinct for survival. Now headed by Charles Spencer - Diana's younger brother and uncle to Princes William and Harry - the Spencer family will play a crucial role in the future of the British monarchy." "Blood Royal: The Story of the Spencers and the Royals tells how the Spencers gained their power, how they used it, and how they finally achieved their grandest dynastic marriage of all in 1981 through the union of Diana Spencer with Charles Mountbatten Windsor, Prince of Wales."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
