The Last Dragon

Ready to challenge academic gatekeepers and institutional narratives? "The Last Dragon" explains the process of utilizing commonly available commercial sites to research ancient DNA and explore how it "works." Utilizing her own genome analysis, Susan Yasinski shows readers how in-depth research can be accomplished with the commercial tools available to the average person. She also takes a critical look at the science of ancient DNA, and the importance of opening the field for citizen scientist contributions. Readers will gain the know-how to research their own ancient DNA and possibly continue on to become a citizen scientist in their own right! Susan puts the power of discovery in your hands. Opening the door is the hard part, but Susan makes it make sense.
