Earth Science and Earth Science : "br" Easy Illustrations / Make Earth Science More Fun, Make Earth More Interesting. I have a new introductory book on paleontology. What do you think of when you hear the word "fossil"? When you hear the word "fossil," it comes to mind that it is the body fossils of large ancient organisms such as dinosaurs, but in order to imagine how they lived, it is necessary to investigate trace fossils such as footprints and feces. Trace fossils may seem plain compared to body fossils, but they reveal traces of behavior that cannot be known only from body fossils. If you want to know the earth's environment at the time when ancient organisms lived, it is also necessary to analyze molecular fossils that are so small that they cannot be seen only from body fossils. Even if you say "fossil," there are various types of fossils and different research approaches. Also, when you hear the word "fossil research," you may imagine an excavation, but it is only the tip of the iceberg in paleontology. Sometimes you can get hints from living animals. This book uses illustrations to explain the history of life and changes in the earth's environment through a rich variety of fossils. How are fossils created, how life evolved, what history the earth has followed, what can be understood from fossils and what can not be understood from fossils. Why don't we think together about what life is and what the earth we live on by understanding fossils from various perspectives? ■ Contents (Tentative) Chapter1 Welcome to the world of fossils Chapter2 Geological formations and fossils Chapter3 History of life Chapter4 Read from fossils Earth Environment Chapetr5 Eyes paleontologist paleontology
