A Quick Review – The Story of Earth by Robert M. Hazen

The Story of Earth: The First 4.5 Billion Years, from Stardust to Living PlanetThe Story of Earth: The First 4.5 Billion Years, from Stardust to Living Planet by Robert M. Hazen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It is challenging to realize how little time “we” as people have spend on this planet and how “we” as a species take to squander the gifts nature provides. Thought the subject matters delves into the technical aspects of planet creation I found that the author’s passion for the subject make me want to turn to the next page and find out what happens next. The later chapters were the most impacting as they describe a planet where we are not likely to exist (in our present form) and how the cosmos could eventually fall to a darkness. A fantastic read.
