Kgnu - How On Earth

We speak with Eugene Harris, Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences and Geology at Queensborough Community College - part of  the City University of New York - about his new book,  Ancestors in Our Genome. In this feature, we discussed the methods used by molecular anthropologists to determine human evolution from our primate ancestors and several fascinating examples of the application of these techniques, including a discussion of the rise of lactose digestion in northern Europeans.
