And the question of what caused the dinosaurs demise is more relevant than ever, as humankind confronts the paroxysms of an imperiled planet and the possibility that we may become the dinosaurs of the sixth extinction.</p><p>Born into a life of poverty on a small farm in Switzerland as the sixth of a dozen children, Gerta was told her dreams of becoming a doctor were impossible. Never one to take no for an answer, she defied the odds and reclaimed her childhood dream of studying science, ultimately completing her graduate studies in geology at Stanford and becoming a professor at Princeton University and a major voice in her field. Along the way, she overcame the hostility and disdain of her male colleagues, who sabotaged her work, took credit for her discoveries, and chided her for not knowing her place.</p><p>Driven by a relentless passion to discover the truth of Earths catastrophic upheavals, Gerta continued her research, which led her to uncover a growing mass of evidence that contradicted the then-widely accepted asteroid impact theory. Gerta discovered the real cause of the dinosaurs extinction was Deccan volcanism, a series of cataclysmic volcanic eruptions on the Indian peninsula. Outraged by her daring to challenge them, the toxic, male scientific establishment launched an all-out war against Gerta, doing their utmost to sabotage her work, destroy her reputation, and suppress the publication of her research.</p><p>Today, after nearly forty years, the tide has turned, and a new generation of scientists is embracing Deccan volcanism as the most likely cause for at least four major mass extinctions in Earths history. <em>The Last Extinction</em> is the story of that lone journey by a woman and a small team of collaborators, their exhilarating discoveries, and the uphill battle against a unified dominant group unwilling to listen to reason.</p>...9798897566181_Recorded Books, Inc.audiolibro_9798897566181_9798897566181Gerta Keller,InglésMéxico2025-09-09T00:00:00+00:00NoMINUTE2025-09-09T00:00:00+00:00Recorded Books, Inc.
