Tells the story of how one creature's journey out of the water made the human body what it is today - and one man's voyage of discovery in search of our origins.
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? Why do we fall ill in the way that we do? And why should we take a close look at Tiktaalik, the first fish capable of doing a push-up, if we want to understand our limbs?
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.
