Animals and Plants in Prehistoric Australia and New Zealand. Illustrated and Indexed. Photography of Fossils by Jim Frazier. Dioramas by Dorothy Dunphy.
The Nature of Hidden Worlds takes us on a journey through time, re-creating the ancient environments and telling us about the animals and plants that lived in Australia and New Zealand long, long ago.
It traces the evolution of living things from the first green cells that nearly four billion yeas ago predetermined the path that evolution would take by creating an oxygenated atmosphere, through all the stages up to the present. We see how environmental change has been the driving force of evolution, and how sudden and rapid changes caused extinction.
With stunning color illustrations.
