Genealogy in The New Republic

Check out The Genealogy Craze in America -- Strangled by Roots in The New Republic (you'll have to register to view the article, but it's free). The writer, Steven Pinker, never uses the term, but much of the article focuses on the concept of the selfish gene. A lot of the content will be familiar to hardcore genealogists (especially the math), but it's still an interesting read.
