We stand on solid ground and feel nothing move. The rock beneath our feet seems permanent, the air above us eternal, the world around us stable and given. None of it is.
The Restless Planet tells the story of the Earth across its full four-and-a-half-billion-year history—from the supernova that forged its atoms to the ice ages, mass extinctions, and long chain of contingencies that eventually produced us. Drawing on geology, biology, astronomy, and chemistry, Robert W. Jansen places the listening in each moment of deep time: breathing the air, feeling the ground, looking at a sky no human eye has ever seen.
This is not a book about where the Earth is going. It is a book about where it has been—and why that story is more astonishing than anything we could have invented.
