Here he wields his unique expertise to give us a new appreciation for the incredible occurrences—from the Big Bang to the formation of supercontinents, the dawn of the Bronze Age, and beyond—that have led to our improbable place in the universe.The book, A Most Improbable Journey: A Big History of Our Planet and Ourselves [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9780393292695 in Hardcover by Walter Alvarez may be ordered in bulk quantities.
