书籍简介

电视科学家本·加罗德从进化论的超级明星的角度讲述了历史上的灭绝事件，这些动物是有史以来在我们的星球上游泳、跟踪、滑行或行走的不可思议的动物。无论你是9岁还是90岁，他对自然界中具有破坏性但又创造性的力量的独特探索使科学变得有趣！

这里有生命故事中的超级明星，从超级怪异的到超级凶猛的动物。通常一个物种在灭绝之前有1000万年左右的时间来进化、吃东西、追逐、玩耍，也许是做作业，甚至是登月。

----------------

怪诞虫是一种生活在4.5亿年前的超级怪异、带刺、带甲的蠕虫。科学家们起初并不确定它是往哪边走，又是往哪边走。

但在这里，你会发现怪诞虫的所有秘密：它生活在哪里，吃什么，为什么它如此古怪，以及为什么它在生命的故事中如此重要。

----------------

本系列收集了所有关于我们在小行星或巨型火山、大陆冲突和气候变化造成的大规模灭绝中失去的动物的八本书。

本书特点：

●由古美术家Gabriel Ugueto带来的全彩色生活的过去

●知名科学家提供的 "专家问答"。

●词汇和发音指南

TV scientist Ben Garrod presents the biggest extinction events ever, told from the point of view of evolution's superstars, the most incredible animals ever to swim, stalk, slither or walk our planet. Whether you're 9 or 90, his unique exploration of the most destructive, yet most creative, force in nature makes top level science fun.

Here are the superstars of the story of life, from the super-weird to the super-ferocious. Usually a species has 10 million years or so of evolving, eating, chasing, playing, maybe doing homework, or even going to the moon before it goes extinct.

Hallucigenia was a super-weird, spiky, armoured worm that lived 450 million years ago. Scientists were, at first, unsure of which way round it went, and which way up.

But here you will discover all Hallucigenia's secrets: where it lived, what it ate, why it was so weird and why it is so important in the story of life. 

Collect all eight books about animals we have lost in mass extinctions caused by asteroids or mega-volcanoes, clashing continents and climate change.

Also includes:

* Past brought to full-colour life by palaeoartist Gabriel Ugueto

* Ask an Expert contributions from leading scientists

* Glossary and pronunciation guide
