For an in depth treatment of the genetic mechanics of forming eyes and feet and arms and such pick up a copy of Endless Forms Most Beautiful by Sean B. Carroll. Super-interesting and informative with regard to evolutionary development which will shed a lot of light and further your understanding.
I just want to say I really like this guy. Also check out Endless Forms Most Beautiful.
I enjoyed Endless Forms Most Beautiful by Sean Carroll
That's why I added "biologist" in the title. Physicist Sean Carroll very cool, Biologist Sean Carroll also very cool! His book, Endless Forms Most Beautiful, is amazing.
Next time we'll try to invite Physicist Sean Carroll! He might come!
Genetic statistics 👍🏻
As weird as it may sound, i love modern cities and i love living downtown. I'd start with Canada, because that's my favourite country, but i'd honestly love to travel all around the world. So many different cultures!
I read Marvel comics for fun, but atm i'm reading a book (well, i downloaded a free pdf of it because i'm a broke college student) called Endless Forms Most Beautiful. I'm not evo-devo but that's always been an interest of mine, so i like reading about it.
> genes responsible
do you have any idea how this works?
Big fan of Dawkins but one should also read Gould and others mentioned here (read as much as you can and make your own mind up ;-)... i find Sean Caroll's evo-devo stuff really fun to read and i think Dawkins touches on the developments in that field but Caroll (and probably others) get down and dirty in it: http://www.amazon.com/Endless-Forms-Most-Beautiful-Science/dp/0393327795
You might be interested to know that almost all living things share a set of genes called the hox (also called toolbox) genes. These genes only require small mutations to cause immense changes in body shape.
If you want to learn more, read Sean B. Carroll's Endless Forms Most Beautiful.

For the record, that book is in no way about religion.
The fact that so many species share so many genes is actually extremely elegant evidence of common descent. There is also the horizontal gene transfer that someone else already mentioned.
