Description: This book explores the origins and history of the human body, drawing connections between ontogenetic and phylogenetic development. The author argues that gradual morphological changes which accumulate across generations manifest within the embryonic development of each individual. They dissect comparative anatomy and ontogeny to explore the human ancestral series, from primordial organisms to the appearance of mammals and primates. This approach provides a fuller understanding of the human form and its place within the broader context of evolutionary history, challenging traditional views of biology that regard humans as distinct from other species. This book offers important insights into the long, interconnected journey of life on Earth.
