If you think that an organ has appeared in the process of the evolution of disinformation, then you think. Or dreaming. Nothing new is taken. The way you and I, your pet cat or a chirping bird outside the window, are created to the smallest bone is the result of millions of years of evolution.

All in his book «Follow the broken skull. The history of skeletal evolution» is told by scientist Leonid Gorobets. He scrupulously goes through how the skeleton and bones changed, explaining on dinosaurs, humans and even fish how evolution worked all these years.

What is the gene «urchin sleeper», why do toads «inactivate» from the ribs and why crocodile meat ’yas on the taste like chicken? Why are the eyes placed on the head and not, say, on the hands, and why are the ends — the former swimmers? Which fish can overtake a cheetah in speed, and which finger would have to be amputated if we were moving like reptiles? Why octopus, despite their large brains, are often dumber than bjolis, and what is the difference between sharks and airplanes? The author of the book answers these and other questions, while explaining why the internal skeleton is cooler than the external and how to distinguish a colleague from a reptiloid.
