EVE. The History of the Evolution of the Female Body. The History of Humanity

When and how did our distant ancestors develop milk? Why did they choose such a complex and dangerous process as pregnancy over the convenient and painless laying of eggs? And what truly differentiates us from animals? In her outstanding research, PhD Keth Bohannon examines the evolutionary 'Eves' of each of the main traits of Homo Sapiens. Vividly portraying the image and life of Morganucodon — Eve of milk, Protungulatum donnae — Eve of placental mammals, and others, she guides you step by step through 200 million years of human evolution. 'Prepare for a deep dive into the amazing history of the female body.' — Bonnie Garmus, author of the bestseller 'Lessons in Chemistry'.
