Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book embarks on a fantastic voyage through geological time commencing with the formation of our solar system. Drawing on insights from the solar system as it exists today, the author takes us back to its origin as a gaseous mass. The author explains the remarkable process by which this mass cooled and contracted, eventually forming the sun and planets, including our own Earth. The book explores how the Earth's crust formed through a combination of forces, including water and fire. It details the long and complex history of life on Earth, from the earliest microscopic organisms to the rise of humans. The book concludes by examining the interconnected nature of all life and the profound implications of our place within the vast scheme of things.
