520 $aThe Sapiens for natural history: a brilliant paleobiologist and acclaimed author recreates sixteen extinct worlds--from the emergence of early multicellular creatures 550 million years ago to the most recent Ice Age. Taken in isolation, a fossil can be a fantastic lesson on anatomy, on shape, on form, and evolution. But no fossil, whether animal, plant, fungus, or microbe, ever existed in isolation. Each lived within an ecosystem, an interaction among myriad species and the environment, a complex mishmash of life, weather, and chemistry also dependent on the spin of the Earth, the position of the continents, and the minerals in the soil or the water. Paleobiologist Thomas Halliday has mined the most recent paleontological advances to reveal characteristics of life in the distant past and rendered them here with a novelist's eye for detail and drama.
