A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived: A Captivating Book on Genetics, DNA, Ancestry, Evolution, Humanity, and the Stories Written in Our GenesIt is the history of who you are and how you came to be. It is unique to you, as it is to each of the 100 billion modern humans who have ever drawn breath. But it is also our collective story, because in every one of our genomes we each carry the history of our species births, deaths, disease, war, famine, migration and a lot of sex. In this captivating journey through the expanding landscape of genetics, Adam Rutherford reveals what our genes now

It is the history of who you are and how you came to be. It is unique to you, as it is to each of the 100 billion modern humans who have ever drawn breath. But it is also our collective story, because in every one of our genomes we each carry the history of our species - births, deaths, disease, war, famine, migration and a lot of sex.

In this captivating journey through the expanding landscape of genetics, Adam Rutherford reveals what our genes now tell us about human history, and what history can now tell us about our genes. From Neanderthals to murder, from redheads to race, dead kings to plague, evolution to epigenetics, this is a demystifying and illuminating new portrait of who we are and how we came to be.

Nicely Made Shirt
Color: Blue 1, Size: Medium
Linen is always nice. This material does not easily wrinkle. The material is think but not see-through. It is not an athletic fit but fits well on my very buff son. The size is correct for what I normally order for him. The color is more pail than in the picture, but that's to be expected with linen. We have purchased 3 more colors.

A Perfect Shirt for a Wedding!
Color: White, Size: Large
Perfect, my son needed for a wedding, and there are just so many shirts, hard to know which one to choose. This shirt was it! It fit great, looked very nice, good quality. Very good for summer, it's not stiff and fabric is softer than an oxford. I did iron it out of the package since it was folded, and it ironed beautifully. Traveled in the car on a hanger with the suit jacket, wore next day to wedding. We got a size large, he's 5'8" and about 170 and it was good, and not gigantic like some large, the short sleeves were just right, there was enough length to tuck in. The collar was just right and buttoned for a tie. Once the dancing started and jackets came off, it survived well, and still looked great at the end of the night (tails out by then). Could not have done better at a Men's Warehouse for a lot more money.

Packaging and availability
Color: Light Blue, Size: Large
great products except packaging could be better instead of vacuum sealed plastic that requires the shirts to be washed and ironed. Also we need more small sizes thanks.
