"The volume provides a good snapshot of the state of knowledge of human diversity of Southeast Asian populations. Both geneticists unfamiliar with studies of Southeast Asian populations and archaeologists and linguists seeking a general genetic overview of the region will find very useful information in this book. The book is also a valuable example of a multidisciplinary approach (wedding genetics, archaeology, and linguistics) employed to better evaluate, and possibly distinguish between, the different hypotheses concerning human origins and movements. The authors are to be congratulated for bridging the dysfunctional gap between people from related but methodologically distinct disciplines.…" The American Journal of Human Genetics "Ψ this volume, to some degree at least, helps to resolve the problem of interpreting genetic and other kinds of information …" Asian Perspectives Southeast Asia is regarded as one of the birthplaces of modern humans. Recent genetic evidence shows that it was probably the entry point of modern humans from Africa into East Asia and Oceania. With the help of new markers X mostly from the Y-chromosome and mtDNA X several recent efforts have been made to study the populations of Southeast Asia, which have been somewhat neglected in the past. A new picture of the origin and migrations of modern humans in this region is quickly emerging. In this book, the leading researchers in the studies of Southeast Asian, East Asian, and Oceanian populations present the most up-to-date results of their research.
