Bothered by the story of life on Earth being told as if it’s the story of Humanity? This new 'big history' look at life on Earth, presented in minimalistic blank verse with vivid full-color images, recounts the history of life in consistent million-year increments, each page illustrated with a full-color, full-page image appropriate to the time period. It’s a quick read, with no more than a dozen lines per page. The net effect is an hour long trip through four billion years that puts us hominids in perspective with viruses, bacteria, and climate change. 202 pages, 202 full-color, full-page illustrations.
