This series of books provides an overview of the 450 million-year history of Earth's life extinction and recovery, using typical extinct organisms as a starting point to explain the mechanisms and impacts of extinction and its significance for the evolution of life. Using examples like the extinction of the Tasmanian wolf caused by humans and the critically endangered Hainan gibbons reminds us that protecting other lives is protecting human beings' future.
