The second part, The Age of Reptiles, covers the Mesozoic Era, and lasts from pages 50 through 143. The third and final part, The Age of Beasts, covers the Cenozoic Era, and lasts from pages 144 through 206. The book concludes with a timescale of life on earth, tree of life diagrams, and the acknowledgements and index.[1]
