Chapter 5: Getting Ahead

I find every chapter in Your Inner Fish to be getting more and more interesting as the novel progresses and it was true about chapter 5 as well.

It was enticing to learn about the head of a human and how it progresses and it's connection to the gills of a shark was an add-on.

It was no surprise that the head would be a complex pathway of nerves and such. Only something with that much complexity could be the explanation of the successful functioning of a human-and in some cases the unsuccessful and unfortunate lives lived because of arch syndromes.

The facial nerve sparked some interest when I read about it because of the fact that it is the main nerve that controls the muscles of facial expression. A simple blemish in the structure of a person's face could be explained by none other than a fault in the facial nerve.

Although this chapter had many different hidden agendas, just like the structure of the brain, it was overall interesting to learn about.
