>From Publishers Weekly:
"Paleontologist Novacek (Time Traveler) tells the story of our ecosystem and
warns that humans are transforming it so drastically that it may not be
habitable in the future. Discussing the evolutionary processes that led to the
diversification of all life, he asserts that people who reject the theory of
evo
lution impede efforts to preserve the ecosystem because they ignore the
importance of biological diversity."
Half of the cover is a panel from the Zallinger mural "The Age of Reptiles".
