Environment, Nature, Science and technology, Physics
Human-narrated audio, Human-transcribed braille
Summary
Paleontologist/geologist Ward and astronomer Brownlee outline their hypothesis that complex multicellular life--animals and higher plants--"is less pervasive in the universe than is...commonly assumed." The two scientists reexamine Earth's history to identify crucial attributes that have allowed the planet's rare, and perhaps unique, evolutionary achievements. 2000
