How We Move = Who We Are

Basic Books

"Something in the way she moves..."  George Harrison had a particular person in mind when he wrote his song, but movement really makes us who we are. 

Case in point: sharks and dolphins.  One's a fish, one's a mammal, but because of where they live and how they have to move, they look very similar. 

Other astounding parallels abound in nature, and they are well-documented in biologist Matt Wilkinson's book .  Get ready to do the locomotion; the author explains the connection between movement and evolution.
