Discover the Science of Life’s Common Origin
Delve into the fascinating world of evolutionary biology with Maxim Vinarsky’s The Gospel of LUCA: In Search of the Last Universal Common Ancestor. This compelling book explores the animal kingdom and the human species, centering on LUCA—not an apostle, but the Last Universal Common Ancestor of all life on Earth.
Join the author, a biologist, on a journey spanning over 4 billion years. You will learn about the origin and evolution of multicellular animals, and discover that Homo sapiens is just one branch on the great Tree of Life, shaped by the same evolutionary laws as all living things. The book reveals how biologists identify evolutionary relationships and reconstruct the paths of evolution, while also sharing the lives and scientific breakthroughs of the researchers who uncovered the idea of universal evolutionary kinship.
This is a neutral, fact-based exploration of life’s deep history—perfect for fans of science and natural history. Price: 624.00 RUB.
