Fakta

This book combo brings the prehistoric world to life through the study of ancient plants, animals, and climates. This compelling volume reveals how Earth’s long and complex history has shaped life as we know it—and how fossils, sediments, and ice cores serve as the time machines of science.

Begin with Paleobotany, the study of fossilized plants, and uncover how forests once grew where deserts now lie. Through preserved leaves, pollen, and wood, scientists reconstruct past ecosystems, trace plant evolution, and discover how vegetation adapted to shifting environments over millions of years.

Next, delve into Paleozoology, which focuses on the remains of ancient animals—from dinosaurs and mammoths to tiny marine creatures. Learn how skeletal remains, footprints, and fossilized behavior reveal evolutionary changes, predator-prey relationships, extinction events, and the rise of new species over geological time.

Finally, explore Paleoclimatology, the science of past climates. By analyzing tree rings, ice cores, and ocean sediments, researchers piece together Earth’s shifting temperatures, atmospheric conditions, and major climate events. This field is essential for understanding long-term climate cycles and their influence on both extinction and evolution.

Together, these disciplines create a vivid picture of Earth’s ancient biosphere, showing how life, land, and climate have evolved in tandem over hundreds of millions of years. Ideal for students, educators, and history-of-science enthusiasts, this volume opens a window into the deep past and its relevance to today’s environmental challenges.
