Synopsis

It may be hard to believe that the Earth, with all the complexity and biodiversity we observe today, originated in a cloud of gas and dust. Yet much of the plant and animal life that seems so common now evolved relatively recently on the timeline of Earths long history. The Earths remarkable origins are chronicled in this insightful volume, which also examines the prehistoric organismsfrom bacteria to dinosaursthat populated the planet long before humans arrived.
