Author Talk with Libby Copeland
Libby Copeland is an award-winning journalist who writes about culture, science and human behavior. Her book, The Lost Family: How DNA Testing is Upending Who We Are published March 3, 2020, looks at the impact of home DNA testing on the American family.
In The Lost Family, journalist Libby Copeland investigates what happens when we embark on a vast social experiment with little understanding of the ramifications. Copeland explores the culture of genealogy buffs, the science of DNA, and the business of companies like Ancestry and 23andMe, all while tracing the story of one woman, her unusual results, and a relentless methodical drive for answers that becomes a thoroughly modern genetic detective story.
