The second edition of this book has been completely updated. It
studies the history and gives an analysis of extreme climate change
on Earth. In order to provide a long-term perspective, the first
chapter briefly reviews some of the wild gyrations that occurred in
the Earth's climate hundreds of millions of years ago: snowball
Earth and hothouse Earth. Coming closer to modern times, the
effects of continental drift, particularly the closing of the
Isthmus of Panama are believed to have contributed to the advent of
ice ages in the past three million years. This first chapter sets
the stage for a discussion of ices ages in the geological recent
past (i.e. within the last three million years, with an emphasis on
the last few hundred thousand years).
