Viac o knihe
The book delves into the controversial Nemesis theory, proposing that a small companion star to our sun causes periodic bombardments of comets, leading to mass extinctions on Earth, including the one that wiped out the dinosaurs. David M. Raup presents an engaging exploration of the scientific debates surrounding this theory, incorporating the latest research on terrestrial impacts. The narrative also addresses broader philosophical questions about extinction and evolution, offering an insider's perspective on the scientific community's struggles with these profound issues.
