Your inner fish / Neil Shubin

We live in a world of amazing discoveries and achievements. But there is still so much we don't know. Where do we come from? How closely related are we to flies and other life? These questions, and more, are answered in this book. Neil Shubin takes the reader on a journey examining why we are the way we are, and how you can use a gene from a mouse to put an eye on the back of a fly. The writing is simple and clear, and the concepts, though incredibly complex, are easily presented and completely understandable. An inspiring read.

Who would enjoy this book? Anybody who is interested in how our world functions and finding out how awesome it is.
