Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Two hundred and fifty million years from now, all the landmasses on Earth will come together in a single supercontinent - not the first to form on the planet, nor the last. It is scarcely a century since we first understood how Pangaea, the supercontinent which dinosaurs roamed, split apart, but scientists can now look back three-quarters of a billion years to reconstruct Pangaea's predecessor, and computer-model the shape of the Earth's far-distant future.Ted Nield tells the story of how that science emerged, from the Atlantis-seeking visionaries and madmen who have been imagining lost continents for centuries to the scientists today who are drawing information out of the oldest rocks on Earth.Supercontinent will appeal to readers who enjoyed Simon Winchester's The Map That Changed the World and Richard Fortey's The Earth: An Intimate Biography. Cutting-edge popular science that reveals the grandest pattern in nature. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
