Features: The research in this book demonstrates that mass extinction is a very cruel fact in nature. It not only interrupts the course of life evolution but also brings new opportunities for evolutionary radiation in the biosphere. Our Earth's environment is constantly deteriorating, biodiversity is declining dramatically, and the rates of species extinction and the number of endangered species are also increasing sharply. We need to learn from prehistoric patterns to understand the current state of human living environments and seek strategies to improve today's environment. This book is suitable for researchers, university teachers, graduate and undergraduate students, and anyone interested in the subject of this book in fields such as geoscience, life science, environmental science, and social science. It is hoped that this book on the macroevolution of life can convey a scientific concept to a broad readership, especially young readers, inspire their passion for science, and guide them to join the ranks of exploring life evolution.
