Life On Earth

  • ISBN: 0002190915
  • Author: David Attenborough
  • Description:
    This book, like the BBC television series on which it is based, is an attempt to give us a history of nature rather than a conventuinal natural history, and it is told as much as possible in terms of animals and plants alive today. The result is a pageant of life - a re-enactment of 3,500 million years of history with a cast of characters drawn from the whole range of life on earth today. David Attenborough has recieved high praise for both the book and the series. This book is a permanent record of one of the most ambitious project ever undertaken by British television as well as a standard introduction to the study of nature.
