Résumé
In this vast sweep of our Earth's history, Michael J. Benton brings the deep past to life as never before. Deploying the cutting-edge tools in biology, chemistry, physics and geology that are transforming our understanding of previous environmental cataclysms - including the incredible new discovery of a hitherto unknown extinction event - he uncovers not only their lethal effects but also the processes that brought about such large-scale destruction.
Benton examines how global warming, acid rain, ocean acidification, erupting volcanoes and meteorite impact have affected conditions on Earth, the drastic consequences for global ecology, and how life in turn survived, adapted and evolved.
