  Assembled by a team of world class scientists and artists, this book looks at the marvels of adaptation through natural selection - the unity of form and function in the vertebrae skeleton - everything from fish to primates including us, Homo Sapiens. The text provides readers with a thought-provoking demonstration of how each bone is perfectly adapted to the purpose it serves. It contains 140 specially commissioned photographs.
