The Tarot of Light and Shadow presents a new multi-layered way of working with the Tarot: using two decks to explore the Shadow and Light sides of any questions at once. Although some professional readers have used this idea with different packs, and to great effect, this is the first time two Tarot decks have been designed specifically to work together. In fact, they can be seen not as two separate decks but as one deck appearing in two dimensions.

Нова история - от живота в сянката на динозаврите до нас. Нашите предци, бозайниците, са се появили почти едновременно с динозаврите преди повече от 200 млн. г., когато цялата суша е била събрана в един свръхконтинент, изсушен от обширни пустини. А предисторията на тези първи бозайници е още по-дълбока. Тя започва преди около 325 млн. г. в необятните заблатени карбонови гори. Тогава в голямото родословно дърво на живия свят линията на предшествениците на бозайниците се е отделила от тази на влечугите.
