The evolution and function of biological macrostructures
Glaeser, Georg.

The evolution and function of biological macrostructures[electronic resource] /by Georg Glaeser, Werner Nachtigall. - Berlin, Heidelberg :Springer Berlin Heidelberg :2019. - xi, 170 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm.

Shape, Movement, Lever -- Sticking, Filtering, Drilling -- Gripping, Stretching, Folding -- Signalling, Swimming, Flying, Exploding -- Storage, Constructions, Building Materials -- Packaging, Primordia, Unfolding Mechanisms -- Brave New World.

With spectacular large-format images complemented by scientifically grounded, yet easy-to-read, explanatory texts, Georg Glaeser and Werner Nachtigall take you on an exciting journey through the fascinating world of macrostructures - small structures in nature that fulfill specific functions. This book will pique your curiosity about a secret world known only to a few by presenting an impressive range of evolutionary mechanisms, from shrimps' "tail flips" to the adhesive pads of gecko setae and the implementation of biological structures in the field of bionics. The book can be read in any fashion you please - the cross-references make it easy to jump across the sections, which are largely self-contained and discuss various highlights of the evolutionary process.
