Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the presence of disease and pathology in animals that lived millions of years ago, a field of study called paleopathology. Through the analysis of fossilized bones, it examines how disease has progressed throughout geological time. The study reveals that disease was common even in the earliest animals and has become more prevalent in modern times. The author suggests factors like senescence and the introduction of disease may have contributed to the extinction of some animal groups. The book provides valuable insights into the history of disease and its role in the evolution of life on Earth.
