DNA and Social Networking – Debbie Kennett Posted 15 May 2018 by GB £14.99 Out of stock Category: Books Description Additional information The first decade of the new millennium has been an exciting time for the family historian. The increasing availability of online resources has transformed the genealogical research process. DNA testing and the new generation of social networking websites have developed in parallel and are becoming increasingly useful tools. DNA testing can now be used to prove or disprove genealogical connections and will put you in touch with your genetic cousins around the world. It can also take you back beyond the paper trail into your pre-surname history. Social networking tools can help you to find and stay in touch with friends and relatives, and provide new ways to share and collaborate with other researchers. This book looks at all the latest advances in DNA testing from the Y-chromosome tests used in surname projects through to the latest autosomal DNA tests. Debbie Kennett explores the use of new social media, including Facebook, Twitter, blogs and wikis, along with more traditional networking methods. DNA and Social Networking is an indispensable guide to the use of twenty-first-century technology in family history research. Genetics is a complicated subject, and most geneticists are profoundly incapable of explaining the subject clearly. Debbie Kennett is unparalleled in her ability to make complex science beautifully clear, and in her enthusiasm to explain how this subject really works. If you re interested in using genetics for your family tree, or even if you re already grappling with it, this book is guaranteed to make an immense and refreshing addition to your knowledge. –Anthony Adolph, Genealogist author and broadcaster Weight 755 g Dimensions 254 × 165 × 20 mm Related products Seven Pillars of Wisdom – The Art of One-Name Studies (Download) GB £4.50 Add to basket Researching Surnames – UK & International Version GB £2.50 Add to basket The Surnames Handbook – Debbie Kennett GB £14.99 Add to basket Proper People – Early Asylum Life – David Scrimgeour GB £14.99 Original price was: GB £14.99.GB £13.50Current price is: GB £13.50.
