For example: |How Do Fossils Form?| discusses how organisms become fossils and illustrates the concept with activities that simulate fossil-making processe.s |What Can You Learn From Fossils?| explores what fossils teach about ancient organisms, and |Mass Extinction and Meteor Collisions With Earth| discusses recently discovered links between meteor and asteroid impacts on Earth and the demise of animals like dinosaurs. Other chapters cover how to tell the age of the Earth; how dinosaurs evolved; and diversity, classification, and taxonomy. The final chapters offer humanistic perspective on fossils in literature and art.
