Abstract

As the chapter discusses, one of the most pressing questions, and an area of fruitful research, is how consumer genetics results contribute to essentialist beliefs about race and ethnicity. It would serve as an excellent primer text for undergraduate students, scholars who are adjacent to, but still outside of, genetics, or the general public trying to make sense of their consumer genetics results. What's DNA got to say about who you are?. [Extracted from the article]
