    If you had a time machine, when would you go? Would you go back 65 million years, to see the extinction of the dinosaurs? Or perhaps 360 million years to see the fearsome Dunkelosteus, a predatory fish that puts most sharks to shame? Or would you turn the dial back 4 billion years, to find out how life began? Once you reached your destination, what would you eat, what might you wish you had packed? The celebrated science writer and television presenter Olivia Judson offers a guided time-travel tour of Earth, its past transformations and their present-day implications.

    A program of the 2011-2012 Penn Humanities Forum on Adapatations. Cosponsored by Penn's Department of Biology.
