Ch. 2 Getting a Grip

Sorry about the missleading post(mistake).
In this chapter, the anatomy discussion was somewhat a repetition from what was stated in chapter 1, and so this short chapter wasn't at all interesting. But, the pointer on how the hand and the hand only caused him to feel emotional instead of the general dissection of the human caught my attention. Why should a simple structure of a hand influence his emotions when the gruesome openning the rest of the body with the elastic once pumping heart and the long plastic intestines didn't gross him out? The answer was as anticipated, the history influenced his emotions as he is a paleontologist. To me, my arms and hands are very valuable to me for without them I wouldn't have done the same things I do now, but to think that many others[of the same population] share this same blueprint of life, I feel as though many others in every shape or size can do extraordinary things for what I can do is what my species can do as well, but notice the slight difference of structure with thousands of other species; doesn't this make them able to do spontaneous things as a population as well?
The search of the origin in this novel dates back to the 1800s and is not solved until Shubin and many others uncover the creature with many joints showing the primitve arrangement of the beginning of the building of the upper, forearm, and the hand. This discovery links the process of evolution from Fish with no limbs to Fish with limbs but in the most primitive design with disjointed little bones to Fish with limbs but the next structure and the original formula for the arm structure with one upper, two forearm, 9 little for the wrist, 5 rods for the fingers to Lungfish to Amphibians and Reptiles to etc. This transition further explained how every one is related to one another biologically and historically. This means that if our lineage, if possible, can connect everyone to fish and not only to gorillas like how Darwin described in The Origin of Species.
