THE JOURNEY OF MAN tells the greatest story of all; where we came from and how we got there. Through definitive genetic data and original research, Wells uncovers the history of our species and reveals that we can be traced back to a single man living in Africa over 60,000 years ago. Covering thousands of years, and touching all of us, this is the epic story of the human race. The book's narrative travels the length and breadth of the globe, starting in Africa with the ascendance of the first hominids, it traces how the human population spread and diversified, migrating from one continent to another.The key evidence which informs this research is not uncovered in the form of bones and stones, but rather as signals from the human genome

This books should be read more widely. The information is fascinating, really rendering a lot of anthropology, no matter how well done, obsolete because information from DNA, mitochondrial DNA and the Y chromosome of males is so powerful. Anyone who reads this should regard genealogy as a rather lame pursuit, because it covers a few generations and doesn't tell us much.
To be sure, some of the information in this book may go out of date (Neanderthals are now known to have interbred with H. sapiens), but it will mostly last.
