Your Inner Fish- Ch 1.

Just like many other students who underestimated our reading assignment to be
boring and a waste of time, I felt that same way at first. However, as I continued
to read throughout the book I came to acknowledge and appreciate Shubin's book.
I felt that although this first chapter set a fundamental foundation of what the rest of
the chapters will hold.
It's quite amazing how much time and effort is needed to conduct experiments
in order to further prove the scientists' hypothesis/observations of a simple rock.
As i read line by line, it seemed as if there was no final endpoint in terms of the
possible methods in searching for puzzle pieces to finding our "inner fish".
This helped me see a bigger picture outside the box... outside this book. I liked
the author's reference to Dwight D. Eisenhower's remark that planning is essential, but plans
are useless". Because it really is true..... not only does it relate to scientific studies, but in
everything we do in general.
I'm looking forward to what the next chapters contain....
