Reviews

Well researched and beautifully written
*BBC Focus*

Magisterial ... part historical account, part scientific detective story. Switek's elegant prose and thoughtful scholarship will change the way you see life on our planet.
*Neil Shubin, author of ‘Your Inner Fish’*

A fine guide to the four-dimensional tapestry of life
*Nature*

Switek has produced in his first book prose and paleontological inspiration comparable to the work of the late Stephen Jay Gould ... Highly recommended.
