\'A dazzling, beguiling story .
Life\'s evolutionary steps - from the development of a digestive system to the awe of creatures taking to the skies in flight - are conveyed with an alluring, up-close intimacy..
Those long extinct, almost alien early Life forms are resurrected in evocative detail.
Creatures are engagingly personified, from \'gregarious\' bacteria populating the seas to duelling dinosaurs in the Triassic period to magnificent mammals with the future in their (newly evolved) grasp.
It is our planet like you\'ve never seen it before.
Life teems through Henry Gee\'s lyrical prose - colossal supercontinents drift, collide, and coalesce, fashioning the face of the planet as we know it today.
A (Very) Short History of Life is an enlightening story of survival, of persistence, illuminating the delicate balance within which Life has always existed, and continues to exist today.
Slimes begat sponges, who through billions of years of complex evolution and adaptation grew a backbone, braved the unknown of pitiless shores, and sought an existence beyond the sea.
From that first foray to the spread of early hominids who later became Homo sapiens, Life has persisted, undaunted.
It has weathered fire and ice.
Life has learned and adapted and continued through the billions of years that followed.
And yet, despite facing literally every conceivable setback that living organisms could encounter, Life has been extinguished and picked itself up to evolve again.
Who will enjoy reading this book? - Everybody!\' Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs, and SteelFor billions of years, Earth was an inhospitably alien place - covered with churning seas, slowly crafting its landscape by way of incessant volcanic eruptions, the atmosphere in a constant state of chemical flux. told at an exhilarating pace\' Literary Review\'Henry Gee makes the kaleidoscopically changing canvas of Life understandable and exciting. . . \'A dazzling, beguiling story
