HTML:<p><strong>How well do you know the ground beneath your feet?</strong> <strong>A primer for every Earth resident, by Harvard's acclaimed geologist.</strong></p> <p><strong>"A sublime chronicle of our planet."" –Booklist, STARRED review</strong></p> <p>Odds are, where you're standing was once cooking under a roiling sea of lava, crushed by a towering sheet of ice, rocked by a nearby meteor strike, or perhaps choked by poison gases, drowned beneath ocean, perched atop a mountain range, or roamed by fearsome monsters. Probably most or even all of the above.</p> <p>The story of our home planet and the organisms spread across its surface is far more spectacular than any Hollywood blockbuster, filled with enough plot twists to rival a bestselling thriller. But only recently have we begun to piece together the whole mystery into a coherent narrative. Drawing on his decades of field research and up-to-the-minute understanding of the latest science, renowned geologist Andrew H. Knoll delivers a rigorous yet accessible biography of Earth, charting our home planet's epic 4.6 billion-year story. Placing twenty first-century climate change in deep context, A Brief History of Earth is an indispensable look at where we've been and where we're going.</p> <p>Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.</p>.
