The Inner Fish: A History of the Human Body from Ancient Times to the Present
49.99 €
Why do we look the way we do? What do human hands have in common with, say, butterfly wings? And how are hair, mammary glands, and the complex structure of our ears connected? These questions may seem trivial, but the answers will actually allow us to better understand the structure of the human body, and thus, the cause of its weaknesses and illnesses. Neil Shubin, professor of anatomy, renowned paleontologist, and co-discoverer of the legendary Tiktaalik (an intermediate link between fish and land animals), invites readers to embark on a fascinating journey to the origins of evolution and see how our bodies have shaped and evolved over three and a half billion years.
