There are a few forms of evidence that carry the same quiet authority as DNA. It does not speak in the way a witness speaks. It does not argue, justify, or persuade. It exists, silently, within the smallest traces of human presence. A fragment left behind on fabric, a few skin cells on a surface, a drop of blood no larger than a pinhead. Yet within that trace lies something extraordinary. Identity. Not suggested, not inferred, but written into the structure of life itself. For centuries, the pursuit of justice relied on what could be seen, heard, and interpreted.

Locked inside the DNA of every species that ever lived are endless stories - about origins, ancestors, fate, and much more. Until recently, these secrets were completely inaccessible. But with the help of new technologies, scientists are now reading the hidden history of DNA, making remarkable discoveries about ourselves and our fellow species. Your gateway to this treasure trove of information is Unlocking the Hidden History of DNA, 12 informative and accessible lectures delivered by New York Times best-selling author Sam Kean.

In The Genetic Lottery, Harden introduces listeners to the latest genetic science, dismantling dangerous ideas about racial superiority and challenging us to grapple with what equality really means in a world where people are born different. Weaving together personal stories with scientific evidence, Harden shows why our refusal to recognize the power of DNA perpetuates the myth of meritocracy, and argues that we must acknowledge the role of genetic luck if we are ever to create a fair society.

What happened to the ancient Egyptians? When their civilization fell, did the Egyptian people disappear? Or do their descendants exist to this day? What about the ancient Persians? Romans? Mayans? For years, the answers to these questions have been hidden. But no more. Nathaniel T. Jeanson, a Harvard graduate with a PhD in cell and developmental biology, has discovered a DNA-based, generation by generation family tree for global humanity. This tree uncovers the origin and fate of these ancient peoples—and connects them to peoples alive today.

As DNA testing and analysis have grown in prominence to address questions of identity and origin, a common curiosity has risen for Latter-day Saints: Could DNA testing prove the historicity of the Book of Mormon? After all, if Lehi and his family traveled from Jerusalem and established civilizations in the Americas, the DNA should show that, right? Of course, the answer is not so simple. In this book, forensic and genetic experts Dr. John M. Butler and Dr. Ugo A. Perego shed fascinating light on just what DNA can—and can't—tell us about the Book of Mormon and its peoples.
