Some Assembly Required: Decoding Four Billion Years of Life from Ancient Fossils to DNA

byNeil Shubin

Some Assembly Required examines decoding Four Billion Years of Life from Ancient Fossils to DNA, combining Neil Shubin's clear narrative with the perspective of a science narrative. By tracing causes alongside consequences, the narrative gives readers both a grounded account and a route into the wider field of science. Rather than isolating its subject, the book shows how private experience and public systems continually influenced one another. Readers finish with a sharper understanding of the subject and why its consequences still deserve attention.
