The Earth that sustains us today was born out of a few remarkable near-catastrophic revolutions started by biological innovations & marked by global environmental consequences. The revolutions have certain features in common such as an increase in the complexity energy utilization & information processing capabilities of life. This book describes these revolutions showing the fundamental interdependence of the evolution of life & its non-living environment.

The current planet-reshaping activities of our species may be the start of another great Earth system revolution but there is no guarantee that this one will be successful.
