 Amazon.com: Genome: Books: Matt Ridley   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Ridley takes a very complex topic and reduces it to a level that anyone with high school science can follow and understand the major points of each chapter; mostly imparting a sense of why the study of genetics matters, and only going into detail on a few gene sequences through out the book.

Ridley compounds the problem with a misstatement about the distribution of lactase enzyme in populations -- northerners adapting it to offset their loss of sunshine (again entirely false).
