"Building the Most Complex Structure on Earth" provides readers
with a basic biological education an easy and understandable
introduction into a new epigenetic theory of development and
evolution. This is a novel theory that describes the epigenetic
mechanisms of the development and evolution of animals and explains
the colossal evolution and diversification of animals from a new
post-genetic perspective. Modern biology has demonstrated the
existence of a common genetic toolkit in the animal kingdom, but
neither the number of genes nor the evolution of new genes is
responsible for the development and evolution of animals. The
failure to understand how the same genetic toolkit is used to
produce millions of widely different animal forms remains a
perplexing conundrum in modern biology. The novel theory shows that
the development and evolution of the animal kingdom are functions
of epigenetic mechanisms, which are the competent users of the
genetic toolkit.
Provides a comprehensive view of the epigenetic aspects of
reproduction, development, and evolution.Highly rigorous, but
simple enough for readers with only a basic knowledge of
biology.
