  • Provides a complete history of the Earth from its beginnings to the end of the Archaean period.
  • Examines the Earth's origin, the evolution of the mantle, the origin of the continental crust, the origin and evolution of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans, and the origin of life.
  • Looks at the evidence for the Earth's very early differentiation into core, mantle, crust, atmosphere and oceans and how this differentiation saw extreme interactions within the Earth system.
  • Discusses Archaean Earth processes within the framework of the Earth System Science paradigm, providing a qualitative assessment of the principal reservoirs and fluxes in the early Earth.
