The book "The Gospel of LUCA" tells about the animal world and the human race. Only LUCA (Last Universal Common Ancestor) is not an apostle, but our common ancestor, and to understand what this being is, the reader along with... the author of the book, biologist Maxim Vinarsky, will undertake a journey spanning over 4 billion years. They will become acquainted with the history of the emergence and evolution of multicellular animals. They will discover that we, humans, are just one of the many branches of the great Tree of Life, and that the species Homo sapiens was formed according to the laws common to the evolution of all living things. They will understand how biologists reveal relationships between animals and reconstruct the paths of their evolution. They will learn about the lives and scientific discoveries of scientists - those who came to the idea of the evolutionary kinship of all organisms on Earth and figured out how to determine this kinship.
