In this riveting and lively challenge to orthodox thinking, Ted Nield describes how meteorites may have helped create life on Earth.

Astonishing new research suggests that 470 million years ago, a stupendous collision in the Asteroid Belt - which bombarded the Earth with meteorites of all sizes - may have been responsible for the single greatest increase in biological diversity since the origin of complex life. Introducing these fresh discoveries to a wider public for the first time, Ted Nield challenges the orthodox view that meteorite strikes are always bad news for life on Earth.

Introducing a wealth of fascinating characters alongside extraordinary new research, Ted Nield has written the perfect introduction to the science and history of 'the falling sky'.
