New theory tackling why most life on earth perished sixty-five million years ago. Intended for a broad audience, the book will also be of great interest to scientists - many of whom now agree that an object from outer space hit the earth with unimaginable force sixty-five million years ago. The author suggests that a complex sequence of events occurred, beginning with a nearby star turning into a supernova. Massive radiation causing world-wide forest fires, the collision of comets leading to a `nuclear winter' and the acidification of the oceans followed.
