Synopsis "Amalur (Nf) (in Spanish)"

En todas las religiones existe una divinidad creadora que dio origen al Universo. Para los antiguos vascos esta divinidad era Amalur, la madre tierra, que creó el sol, las estrellas y la infinidad de seres vivos que pueblan nuestro planeta. Juan Luis Arsuaga e Ignacio Martínez nos descubren en este libro, cómo actuó Amalur, es decir, cómo surgió la vida sobre la tierra y cómo fue evolucionando hasta que el mundo quedó tal y como lo conocemos ahora. Con Amalur los autores han conseguido convertir la biología en una historia fascinante, cuyo relato podrá atrapar a todos los lectores, incluidos quienes siempre han «temido» los términos «física» y «química», y los hará partícipes de la más extraordinaria de las aventuras.
