It also looks at how fossils preserve the story of evolution, and how it can be deciphered. The chapter on "Young Earth" explains how forces shaped Earth and steered the course of life. The main part of the book - "Life on Earth" - lays out and catalogues the rich story of life, from its beginnings 4 billion years ago, through each geological period, such as the Jurassic and Cretaceous, to the present. Combining stunning visuals and authoritative text, Dinosaurs and Prehistoric Life is a fascinating and revealing encyclopedia that will appeal to the whole family.

Our planet is the last place any self-respecting Mahk-Ra officer wants to be assigned. Yet, despite everything, life continues.These stories bring us face to face with annihilation and show how we can pull ourselves back from the brink.

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 11 working days What's happening in the world lately? How can I be happy when so many are not? Is life about learning lessons or passing tests? Following your heart or taking what's served to you? What's real? What matters? Who says? Who cares? How do we know or find our purpose? Many of us ask ourselves these questions, and many more, as we go through our days and try to make sense of our lives. Mike Dooley asks them too, except...his questions get answered. Wisely. Compassionately. Fully. One such answer explained its source, stating that we all have a higher self within that predates this life and will live beyond it, and thus it knows a whole lot more than we do at "street level" about where we've been, why we're here, and what will likely happen next on planet Earth. Life on Earth takes the form of a journal in which Mike asks what's on his mind during pivotal times in his life. As one of today's most respected New Thought leaders and reality theorists, he offers a lofty platform for this wide-ranging dialogue that powerfully expands our perspectives on essential truths, taking on topics such as: - Why and how to see through the "illusions" of life on earth - How to make sense of natural disasters and manmade tragedies - Living deliberately, creating consciously, and finding your power - Wealth, relationships, "past lives," and the evolution of consciousness - The ultimate reason for life on earth, and elsewhere (it's shockingly simple) These are questions asked from the heart with a cautious, even suspicious, mind. Mike explores the subtleties of the replies in depth and detail using his trademark wit and realism, in this intrepid explorer's guide to the jungles of time and space.
