Humans are mammals. Most of us appreciate that at some level. But what will it mean for us to have significantly more in keeping with a horse and an elephant than we do with a bird, snake or frog? After having a misdirected football kept new dad Liam Drew clutching a exclusively mammalian part of his anatomy, he determined to determine more. Considering himself as a mammal first and a real human second, Liam delves into old biological history to understand what this means to be mammalian. In his funny and interesting style, Liam explores the various characteristics that distinguish mammals from other styles of pets. He graphs the progression of milk, warm blood and burgeoning brains, and examines the introduction of sophisticated teeth, lovely ears, and intricate reproductive biology, plus a number of other mammalian inventions. Entwined are stories of zoological peculiarities and reflections about how being a mammal has shaped the author's life. I, Mammal is a brief history of mammals and their ancestors and of how science came to understand mammalian progression. And in celebrating our mammalian-ness, Liam Drew binds us a little more securely to the five . 5 thousand other species of mammal upon this planet and reveals the deep roots of many traits humans hold dear.
