The best chapter of the book! (=
Even though it is the longest chapter of the book, I did not give up on it as easily as I thought I would. Because usually I would get excited knowing that a chapter is short but this chapter actually made me enjoy all the information Shubin was sharing with the readers. I found it the most interesting when he would discuss complications and their connection to the past of different mammals such as sharks and tadpoles.
While I read this chapter I felt like a historian, a doctor, and a scientist and it was most definitely one of those chapters I thought the reader can interact with Shubin's words. His way of bringing up the past to connect to the future makes the reader do a double take on life today.
My overall thoughts on the book went from interested, lost of interest, to interested again. Shubin's outlook really helped me and my view on the development and evolution of life over time, not saying it changed my beliefs but it gave me a clear vision of what scientists study and believe.
