Kompletní popis

Whether we blink an eye, lift a finger, walk, run, or merely breathe, we are using muscle. Although muscles differ little in appearance and performance across the animal kingdom, they accomplish tasks as diverse as making flies fly, rattlesnakes rattle and squid flare out their tentacles. Steven Vogel is a leader in the burgeoning field of bioengineering, which is rapidly explaining the beauty and efficiency of nature. In this narrative he relates the story and science of nature's greatest engine.
