| Description: |
A remarkable new piece of research that vividly uncovers Scotland's DNA Map. Since the opening of the Scottish Parliament there has been a revitalised interest in Scottish history and national identity. New technology and the mushrooming of genetic studies is spectacularly furthering our knowledge of who we are. |
| Synopsis: |
History has always mattered to Scots, and rarely more so than now at the outset of a new century, with a new census appearing in 2011 and after more than ten years of a new parliament. An almost limitless archive of our history lies hidden inside our bodies and we carry the ancient story of Scotland around with us. The mushrooming of genetic studies, of DNA analysis, is rewriting our history in spectacular fashion. In Scotland: A Genetic Journey, Alistair Moffat explores the history that is printed on our genes, and in a remarkable new approach, uncovers the detail of where we are from, who we are and in so doing colour vividly a DNA map of Scotland. |
