Synopsis

How did the Earth transform from a hot ball of molten rock and metal into the planet that we call home? How did our continents and oceans grow? Where did our great mountain ranges come from?

The geological processes that have shaped our world have also influenced the way humans have populated the planet. Why is there so much oil in the Middle East? Why does South Africa yield gold and diamonds? Why did Britain's coal accelerate its Industrial Revolution? This is the epic story of how the Earth as we know it came into being.
