Beschreibung:
Neil Shubin ist Paläontologe und Leiter des Instituts für organische Biologie und Anatomie an der University of Chicago. Er ist Autor zahlreicher wissenschaftlicher Beiträge, die in renommierten Fachzeitschriften wie Nature und Science erschienen sind. Mit zwei Kollegen gelang ihm die sensationelle Entdeckung eines Fossils, das den evolutionären Übergang von Fischen zu Landwirbeltieren belegte. Im April 2007 war er Fellow der American Academy in Berlin.
Your Inner Fish tells the extraordinary history of the human body and gives answers to some of the questions that only evolution can. Why do we look the way we do? Why are we able to do all the different things we do? And, finally, why do we fall ill in the way that we do? Neil Shubin draws on the latest genetic research and his huge experience as an expeditionary paleontologist to show the incredible impact the 3.5 billion year history of life has had on our bodies. He takes readers on a fascinating, unexpected journey and allows us to discover the deep connection to nature in our own bodies.
