And different people use the term slightly differently, and also what makes it interesting for them differs from scientist to scientist. It may come as a surprise, but the genetic ingredients that assemble you are strikingly similar to those that assemble a fly. So why do you and a fly look so different as adults? The answer lies in where, how, and for how long those ingredients "turn on" during your embryonic development. The intricacies of this early stage of life are now being revealed thanks to the new field of "Evo Devo," short for evolutionary developmental biology. Thus, I have endeavoured, in this E-Booklet to present the followings concisely: § History of Evolutionary thought. § The control of Body Structure. § Recent research in Evolutionary Developmental Biology, along with plenty of relevant Illustrations and Images of Biologists, Embryologists etc. (to honour their incredible work) and for better understanding of this emerging field! …Dr. H.
