Autosomal DNA, for the Genealogist; 2017; 8.5x11; Folded; Glossy Card Stock; 4 pp; ISBN 0-99461-33828-9; Item #: LU11.
You first learned about DNA in high school biology. You probably then did your best to forget about DNA until about a decade ago when DNA testing became a reality as an affordable, relatively speaking, individual identifier and tool for tracking one’s family history. Now every genealogist is a DNA expert. Right? OK, probably not. The language and process of DNA testing is still a science with words that belong to scientists, all of which can be difficult for the rest of us to understand.
