“Probing Human Origins” explores, from various perspectives, how humans became human. This collection of papers acknowledges the importance of genetic ‘blueprints’ but rejects the idea that the DNA sequence of the human genome contains a book of instructions that defines being human. Instead, it promotes the idea that during humankind’s evolutionary history, genic changes occurred in ancestral genomes that were positively selected to help shape the distinctive human phenotype.
