Beschreibung

Extinct Animals explores the science behind extinction, investigating the disappearance of remarkable creatures like mammoths and saber-toothed cats. The book delves into paleontology, examining the fossil record and DNA analysis to understand how scientists piece together the lives of vanished species.

 
Learning about past mass extinction events, such as those caused by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions, offers insights into the current biodiversity crisis and the factors threatening species today.

 
A key focus is de-extinction, exploring the possibility of bringing back extinct animals through cloning and genetic engineering. The book evaluates the ethical considerations surrounding de-extinction, weighing the potential ecological, economic, and social impacts.

 
Beginning with the principles of evolutionary biology, the book progresses through major extinction events and concludes with conservation strategies to prevent future losses, offering a comprehensive overview for anyone interested in biology, life sciences, and nature.

    The Olympic Class ships were intended to be the greatest liners to ever sail the oceans, but the Britannic sank only four years after her sister ship the Titanic. While the wreck of the Titanic is two miles below the surface and rapidly deteriorating, the Britannic is much more accessible (only 400 ft down) and remains largely intact. One of the largest passenger ships ever to have sunk, her wreck presents a unique opportunity to explore the interior of the Olympic Class liners, and examine areas which on the Titanic simply no longer exist. 
     
     
     
    Simon Mills bought the wreck of the Britannic in 1996 and has spent more time exploring it than anyone else. Inside the Britannic is the sum of decades of work covering every inch of the shipwreck as he searches for answers to century-old questions, and discovers new mysteries to solve. Simon takes a forensic approach but this book is more than just the autopsy report of a ship. 
     
     
     
    The Britannic may have been lost over a century ago, but Simon Mills's fascinating new book gives everyone unparalleled access to rediscover her.
