Paternal Genome: X, Y, and the Hidden Order of Male Genetic Transmission

In The Paternal Genome, Dr. Ghassan Taraben, MD, PhD, FAAN explores the Y chromosome, paternal-line genetics, sex-chromosome biology, ancestry, and the hidden logic of male genetic transmission.

This is not a shallow popular genetics book. It is a bold, thought-provoking look at how the male line is carried across generations, how the Y chromosome shapes lineage and development, and why many common assumptions about masculine inheritance are too simplistic.

Inside, you will discover:

• why the Y chromosome is uniquely important
• how paternal-line ancestry and genealogy really work
• what SRY does in male development
• how the paternal genome differs from general inheritance
• and why the male line remains one of the most fascinating realities in human biology

If you are interested in genetics, ancestry, genealogy, sex chromosomes, male development, and the science of inheritance, this book offers a powerful new perspective on one of the most important and least understood subjects in modern biology.
