The Story of the Human Body: Evolution, Health and Disease by Daniel E. Lieberman

5.0

A thoroughly enjoyable book. If you enjoy reading Jared Diamond's books, you'll probably reading this book too. I'm glad that I used to chew sugarcane when I was young. Perhaps, that was the reason, my teeth are mostly not crooked (except the lower front teeth) and why I didn't have any issue with wisdom teeth. As it turns out, some of the non-communicable ailments like crooked teeth, lower back pain and most importantly type-2 diabetes are probably preventable. Chapter 11 is certainly the most interesting chapter in the book.
