Written by one of the leaders in the aDNA field, it covers both the basic techniques and the applications of aDNA in archaeological, anthropological and zoological studies. Susanne Hummel’s writing is clear, she has chosen excellent diagrams to illustrate her text, and she includes many references to help the reader find their way into the primary literature. On the whole, she is to be congratulated for producing such a comprehensive guide ... ." (Terence A. Brown and Keri A. Brown, Human Genetics, Vol. 114 (1), 2003)
