The Restless Planet tells the story of the Earth across its full four-and-a-half-billion-year history—from the supernova that forged its atoms to the ice ages, mass extinctions, and long chain of contingencies that eventually produced us. Drawing on geology, biology, astronomy, and chemistry, Robert W. Jansen places the listening in each moment of deep time: breathing the air, feeling the ground, looking at a sky no human eye has ever seen.

We have mapped the surface of Mars with greater precision than the floor of our own oceans. We predict the weather on Jupiter but cannot say when the next earthquake will strike. We speak of the planet’s future with the confidence of prophets—yet we do not know where the water came from, why heavy elements sit in the crust instead of sinking to the core, or how the first living cell assembled itself from dust. Dust and Time is a sweeping, unflinching exploration of the vast territories of geological ignorance that modern science has papered over with confident models and apocalyptic headlines.

Every drop of oil is ancient sunlight. Three hundred million years of photosynthesis, burial, and geological patience, compressed into a black liquid that we extract in hours and burn in minutes. The ratio of nature’s patience to our haste is roughly one million to one.

Approximately 66 million years ago, an asteroid struck the Earth, triggering a chain of events that would end the reign of the dinosaurs and usher in the age of mammals. Despite its colossal scale, this incident was not the only event of its kind—in fact, it wasn’t even the first. Rather, it’s only the most recent mass extinction our planet has witnessed across its 4-billion-year lifespan.

How did the world as we know it—from the soil beneath our feet to the air we breathe and the life that surrounds us—come to be? Geologists have proposed one set of answers while biologists have proposed another. Earth and Life is the first book to reveal why we need to listen to both voices—the physical and the biological—to understand how we and our planet became possible.
