Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of Earth's history, specifically focusing on the Mesozoic Era, also known as the 'Age of Reptiles.' The author meticulously examines the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods, unveiling the dramatic shifts in landscapes, climates, and life forms that unfolded during this pivotal epoch. Through a comprehensive exploration of rock formations and fossil evidence across Europe, the author reconstructs a vivid picture of ancient environments. From the vibrant coral reefs and lagoons of the Alpine region to the arid inland seas of Germany, readers are transported back in time to witness the rise and fall of diverse ecosystems. The narrative traces the decline of ancient plant groups like seed ferns and the concurrent emergence of cycads and conifers, painting a dynamic portrait of evolving flora. Similarly, the book tracks the transformation of the animal kingdom, highlighting the dwindling numbers of brachiopods and the ascent of ammonites as the dominant marine invertebrates. However, the true stars of this era are the reptiles. The author vividly describes the reign of iconic creatures like dinosaurs, ichthyosaurs, and plesiosaurs, offering insights into their anatomy, behavior, and ecological roles. The discovery of the first mammals in Triassic rocks adds another layer of intrigue, hinting at the evolutionary dawn of our own lineage. By unraveling the mysteries of the Mesozoic Era, this book illuminates a critical chapter in Earth's history, revealing profound insights into the processes that have shaped life as we know it.
