To understand what is, one must learn what came before. Starting with the universal Big Bang, this comprehensive up-to-date book provides a brief introduction to physics & chemistry in order to explain exciting new evidence about how life originated & developed. Dr. Arndt von Hippel is an accomplished surgeon & internationally respected author. His in-depth presentation of how human anatomy & physiology came about will hold the interest of any educated layperson. Reviewer comments: "Arndt von Hippel's irreverent & charming new text should be in the hands of anyone curious about people as animals - which means all of us. From body fluids to the big bang & the nature of scientific truth, von Hippel informs, amuses & clarifies but never trivializes. His unillustrated text is distinguished by fearless honesty & replacement of glitz with meaningful content. It tells us what every citizen should know about his or her ancestry, body parts, biological affinities, predictable behaviors & taste. Buy it, read it, & pass it on to your friends." - Professor Lynn Margulis, U. Mass. Satisfaction guaranteed or full refund.
