Introduces the variety of life on Earth, looks at thirty thousand years of biological evolution, and examines the factors which influence the life span of humans.
"Compartimos el planeta Tierra con millones de especies, cuyas vidas son muy diferentes. Existen bacterias que tan solo sobreviven por minutos, mientras otros organismos pueden existir por milenios."
"This unique book is organised as a timeline spanning over 30,000 years. The approach taken is one of objective wonder from astonishment that the mayfly can enjoy a full life in less time than it takes to read this book, to the awe that is inspired by trees over a thousand years old and colonies of simple life forms which have existed since before recorded time. At the heart of the book is the human story: a central section looks at life expectancy among the human population today and historically through time, examining the many and varied factors that influence longevity."
