Pinch and Tight Grip.

9/4/2022

    In 1963 I wrote an articale in The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery  about a little nerve in the  forearms of Homo sapiens called the Anterior interosseous nerve responsible for innervation of these functions. I never at that time  made the case that the  the pinch and grip were  exclusive to the species  sapiens, based on the fossils øf the bones of the wrist, particularly, scaphoid and trapezius that allow the appossible thumb to be positioned to do so, but less so with all the other Hominide specie fossils known.  Such knowledge of the unique functions available to Homo sapiens over the  Clench and Hook Homanides. 
    Over the thousands of mellennial years that Have taken us  from  arborial, to terrestrial to exploration of interstellar space is the blessing we have been given and the responsibility we owe to care for our world we owe much to the pinch and grip we were given..
