Christopher Lloyd

The complete story about our planet and the development of living beings and people from the Big Bang to the present day.

How old is the universe? How did life originate on Earth? Where in the world does so much water come from? How did tall trees grow from gooey seaweed? What happened to the dinosaurs? Who is our oldest ancestor? When did people discover fire? Who invented the letter? How did the science of ancient Greece shape the modern world? Why was democracy born in Greece? How did Islam start globalization? Why did European explorers set out to conquer the world? Can the planet where almost seven billion people live continue to develop? Are we really superior to other living beings?

These are just some of the questions that Christopher Lloyd answers in this unique book that covers 13.7 billion years in one comprehensive story. Drawing on scientific disciplines from astrophysics to zoology, 'A Brief History of Earth?' it brings the entire past of the Earth and shows that living beings, the universe and everything in the world are connected.
