Origin: A Genetic History of the Americas by Jennifer Raff

3.0

There’s not much revelatory here although it was interesting on its release how the book gained a bit of traction as if it was showing some new data on new world expansion. There are way overlong passages with odd virtue signaling by the author that are quite cumbersome, and in the afterward she seems absolutely clueless when a fellow researcher confronts her about this, which the author seems to mistake as a sign of her passion of the topic.
