Description:
|
"Circumstellar habitable zones" is the first comprehensive volume to address the large-scale ecology and long-range habitability of our planet and its setting in the solar system. It brings together 62 world-class experts in fields as diverse as planetary atmospheres, stellar evolution, microbiology, and many additional disciplines to examine the multitude of factors that define our planetary home and the evolving processes that went into making it habitable. With over 1000 references, it is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in understanding the factors that made and still make our planet and Sun unique in detail but likely not alone in providing a place of habitation among the stars.
