Synopsis In 1980 Luis Alvarez announced his theory of the dinosaur's final demise. This theory was instantly embraced by the media and the public, and became the hottest scientific 'fact' in no time. Unfortunately for Alvarez, many in the scientific community did not support this theory, and in fact later research showed the impossibility of such an idea. This title chronicles the fantastic story of how this hypothesis became so widespread, the controversy it caused, and the myriad scientific research that proves the theory wrong. The authors present an alternative explanation for the mass extinctions and give insight into the ways that sound science is performed.
