Description
The Story of Earth: from Stardust to Living Planet
Robert M. Hazen offers a radical new approach to Earth history, weaving together the stories of the planet's living and nonliving spheres. With an astrobiologist's imagination, a historian's perspective, and a naturalist's eye, Hazen brings twenty-first-century discoveries to life, revealing the intricate relationships between Earth's many iterations.
From the birth of the elements in the stars to the early organisms that shaped the planet's mineral varieties, Hazen's narrative is a sweeping and thought-provoking exploration of our world's history. With its lucid and controversial approach, this book is popular science at its highest order.
