Book synopsis

Nature and humans build their devices with the same earthly materials. Why do their designs diverge so sharply? Vogel compares these two worlds and introduces the reader to his field of biomechanics, explaining how the nexus of physical law, size, and convenience of construction determines the designs of both people and nature. Illustrations.
