The human '''hand''' is one of God's most amazing creations. No other creature has a limb quite like it, apart from a number of other [[primate]]s and also [[kangaroo]]s and [[squirrel]]s and [[chameleon]]s and a number of other animals, but when a person turns his or her hand to a task he or she can build enormous skyscrapers or tiny electronic circuits.

The hand is an extremity possessed by most bipedal mammals. The hand typically contains extensions called fingers and a set of muscle groups that allow for complicated movements. It is primarily used for grasping and controlling objects in it's environment. Humans and other primates use the hand as a means for using tools.
