About this book

The story of life on Earth through the planet's major mass extinctions. Book four, Lisowicia, focuses on a massive nine-tonne, elephant-sized animal. TV scientist Professor Ben Garrod presents a unique exploration of major mass extinctions and how they affected the most iconic animals ever to walk swim, waddle or stalk our planet, in a collectable, full-colour eight-book series, illustrated by foremost palaeoartist Gabriel Ugueto.

201 million years ago, and unlike previous events, the End Triassic mass extinction left lots of clues as to what caused it. Among the victims was Lisowicia, a massive nine-tonne, elephant-sized animal which, in many ways, was a cross between a reptile and a mammal, but not quite either!

With an additonal 'Ask the Expert' section, stunning full-colour art on every page, glossary and pronunciation guide, each book will reveal a different extinction story, from mass extinctions caused by asteroids or mega volcanoes, to over-hunting by humans and habitat destruction.
