Title: The Mammal in the Mirror
Description: "The Mammal in the Mirror is an ideal way to learn about this world and how it makes us who we are. It begins with the small stuff, what biologists call "skin-in": a close-up view of DNA, genes, viruses, and cells; then it moves back a bit to explore the larger systems of human biology, sex and reproduction, the brain and behavior, and energy. Finally, The Mammal in the Mirror takes a look at Homo sapiens from the revealing distance of ecology, evolution, and evolutionary psychology.

The result is an accurate, accessible view of ourselves that will enable every reader, regardless of background, to become bioliterate and able to understand the discoveries that make the headlines of today - and tomorrow."--BOOK JACKET.
