Asia. The Tectonics of Life and Death
Description
Over the many billions of years of the Earth's history our planet has never stopped changing shape. Massive tectonic forces have sculpted and re-sculpted our world in a never ending journey. Tectonics has created life - and destroyed it as well. This program discusses the tectonic history of Asia, mass extinctions, the Himalayas and the creation of a country from its sediment.
