'The evolutionary tale of the Earth and its oceans is undoubtedly the world's greatest adventure, soap opera, and disaster movie all wrapped into one. The setting is the planet Earth, and the characters are all forms of ancient and modern life. The story takes place, for the most part, in an exotic and unfamiliar terrain that is often rocked by cataclysmic asteroid impacts, fiery volcanic eruptions, and huge earthquakes that rip apart the land..The characters of this epic adventure will change, sometimes being familiar in form and at other times being alien-like creatures of nightmarish proportion. Events occur that cause biologic catastrophes and give rise to new characters, as the old are mortally wounded or usurped by a new ruling class. But throughout much of the story, one factor will remain the same - the presence and life-giving nature of the sea..This is one story everyone should know, for it truly puts in perspective our own...impact on the Earth.
