The epic story of the beginning of life on Earth from the much loved and respected naturalist, writer and broadcaster, Sir David Attenborough. Spanning billions of years, First Life reveals the extraordinary story of the evolution of the first life on Earth and how it then evolved into multicellular life, the first plant, the first animal, the first predator, the first to live on land: key moments in the development of the huge diversity of life that has lived on planet Earth. First Life travels the world, from Canada to Australia, Morocco to Scotland, to unearth the secrets hidden in prehistoric fossils and meet the palaeontologists who have harnessed new techniques to enhance greatly our understanding of the origins of life. With an introduction by David Attenborough, and insights captured during the making of the television series, this book is a journey of discovery, showing us what these early animals would have looked like and how they would have lived, bringing them to life with the help of modern computer technology. First Life shows us how evolutionary features of the first creatures have been passed down to modern animals, including humans, giving us amazing insight into the remarkable evolutionary journey that has brought us here today.

Este es el libro que el mayor locutor de historia natural de nuestros tiempos siempre quiso escribir sobre cómo salvar el océano y, en consecuencia, nuestro planeta.Desde los océanos helados de nuestros polos, hasta remotas islas de coral, David Attenborough ha filmado en todos los habitats oceanicos del planeta Tierra. Ahora, con su colaborador habitual Colin Butfield, comparte la historia de nuestro ultimo gran y critico desierto, el que da forma a la tierra en la que vivimos, regula nuestro clima y crea el aire que respiramos.A lo largo de cien años, ocho habitats oceanicos unicos, innumerables especies intrigantes y a traves de historias personales, historia y ciencia de vanguardia, Oceano descubre el misterio, la maravilla y la fragilidad del habitat mas inexplorado de nuestro planeta. Y muestra su notable resiliencia: es la parte de nuestro mundo que puede recuperarse mas rapido, en algunos casos lo ha hecho, y durante nuestras vidas podriamos ver un mundo marino completamente restaurado, incluso mas rico y espectacular de lo que podriamos esperar Si actuamos ahora.
